rather than responding to the fact that one query had been waiting for a couple days before being added to the list, this conversation has become inanely silly.
The way I handle e-mails is to eliminate all the wasteful space, including all the computer gibberish, which otherwise makes the e-mail next to impossible to read after a while as the margins become ever wider & the text ever narrower. And since I was the first to respond to that e-mail, there was no 'thread' to follow - other than to show it came from a non-list member.

Please, when you are asked to moderate an incoming message, your choices are to permit it to be posted or not. Whichever you choose, you may, of course, wish to reply yourself. But if you reply to a message that you allow to go to the list, you need to reply to the copy that you will then get from the list, not the original secret copy you received. Doing it the wrong way wrecks the threading and confuses people. You owe it to them to get it right. Would you release the original message, please?
