(etc, for the third time). This isn't a way to get your question answered. One copy of your message would be enough. The subject line on your first message was fine, as was the content. Send it three times, though, especially with subject lines like this and you'll just annoy people, which means that they're more likely to delete it unanswered. In addition, this subject line guarantees that many people will delete it unread. You can't expect an answer to any message immediately, though it may happen. Most people who answer messages on this list have a certain rhythm. For example, they sleep during the night or the morning. Doug White does most of his work in a two-hour session late in his evening. I saw your first message and didn't delete it. It's 8 am here, and I am going through a night's worth of mail. If I answer your message, it'll be later in the day, but by then somebody else might have done it.
