You forgot to add proper quotation to the request, or in general nice
handling of mails: correct subject, quotation, move offtopic to off
list, cut long lines, assume fixed fonts... etc, the basics of mailing
lists (and no, I am not inventing this, you can find such suggestions
in multiple places, even a rfc, perfectly written already). For a
reference of the quotation one, see Hans signature:
Q: Because it reverses the logical flow of conversation.
A: Why is putting a reply at the top of the message frowned upon?
Great example.
