So preface your answers with: "as of 10.0 this is what I understand"

The timestamp on the email is likely more than sufficient for someone to
lookup the PostgreSQL version should the need arise.

I'm not saying the presence of a version is bad, only the badgering of
people asking questions to provide it when it has no bearing on the answer
to the question being asked at the time it is asked.  You are more than
welcome to meets the needs of future readers by anchoring every response
you choose to make to the version or version you know your answers apply to.
