P.S. (with additional apologies for the top-posting)
I realise that I have myself fallen as a victim of the confusion, and responded to the
off-topic and off-thread message.
My apologies to the original poster of this thread.

Well, all I can say is that it doesn't really look like you've figured
it out.
The way to use a mailing list, I mean.
Detailed explanation : after all the responses you have sent to various
unrelated threads on this mailing list, it has now become a bit
confusing which problem was yours, and who figured out what. You have
probably also confused a number of other people who have asked their own
questions, but for which you have now answered (in their name) that you
figured it out, thank you.
A mailing list such as this one (and most other similar ones) is a bit
different from a chat forum. When someone has a question, they send a
message, with a subject.
The people trying to help here (all volunteers, doing this on their own
free time), answer the questions individually, *by subject*, taking
care to reply only to each message individually, and preserving the
original subject of the particular message to which they are
responding. That helps keeping things organised, so that the person who
asked the original question would actually find the answers to their own
question, by looking at the sequence of messages that have their
original subject.
In other words, maybe what got you confused is that you thought that all
these messages were answering your original question, when in reality
each one was answering another question from someone else. Not so ?
