Just to note: For me your (Saad's) indentation showed perfectly fine on GMail. I'm note sure why Steven didn't see it (I think he reads only plaintext email), so I'd guess perhaps your email included both HTML and plain text parts and the plain text part perhaps had the indentation stripped out and the HTML did not. Anyway point being, it's best to post plain text if you're emailing unless you absolutely must use HTML, certainly this is the best way for this mailing list.
