I see that there have been no duplicates in your recent responses.
Thanks for correcting the problem.

If it would help, I will gladly block whichever of the two email
addresses you think is "the wrong account" so that it will become
obvious when you first send the email (you'll get a bounce message).  I
would have done this already but since you responded once as cygwin at
tlinx dot org and once as law at tlinx dot org, it wasn't clear which
you considered to be "the wrong account".
