Here is an example:
I have someone who is e-mailing me ridiculous messages and CC's them to everyone under the sun. I could go back and forth with this person but I prefer to be more professional. I want to say to this person that I am not going to get into a pissing match with them. How do I say it politely?

Continuous verbal sparring in the office.
Constant, unnecessary information exchange. Inappropriate/hostile conversations in the office.
Verbal altercations.

Argument. Difference of opinion. Maybe cat fight, but that's on the edge of bad taste.

Just stop responding to their emails. But I do agree with "spitting match." Send one more email and say you won't respond again and that's it. Get your boss or human resources involved.

How about describing what it means. Try this:
"All we're going to do is get into a competition where no one will win and everyone will get dirty."

Spitting contest is a bit more appropriate. 'Test of wills' might not fit the situation, but is most acceptable.
