That's it!

If I were, for example, keith at kgparts.com (special respect to him and
all new subscribers who begun to get this list these hard days :) )
I'd read the Subject line and then the rest of message. That all gives
enough sense to avoid asking "Why?" at least. Strange words seems
to be out-topic. Maybe some other list gone crazy: it abuses subscribers
and all complaints are somehow routed wrong way... "Have tried everything"
what? If I'd tried something I'd mention it here. Hmm... Androids?
