Do I ignore his e-mail if I said I wanted to keep in contact?

I made the mistake of breaking NC with my ex in December and sent an e-mail saying it would be nice to keep in occasional contact (which he replied to). Now that I've almost completely moved on, I have no interest in what he's up to. I don't want to update him, either, because he has made it obvious that he still misses me and is struggling to move on. He emailed me recently, and I don't know if I should just ignore it and hope he gets the idea, or tell him that I actually do not want to keep in contact after all? It feels rude to not tell him, yet I know I don't owe him any kind of explanation.

It would show maturity and respect to explain to him that you don't want to be friends. Especially since it was you who requested occasional contact.
