Richard,

Getting help from a community of people communicating on a mailing list 
is a two-way street. If you want help, you should expect to have to 
play by the rules of the group.

Now I was wrong about the characteristics of your post (your cygcheck 
output was attached, though not correctly attached), but it was an 
innocent mistake in that I was misled by the behavior of my mail 
software. I'll know not to make that mistake in the future.

But it is also true that you didn't play by the rules, because we 
request that cygcheck output be attached _and_ that the attachments not 
be placed in-line. It is up to you to accommodate that requirement, 
even if it means changing the way you access email. It is entirely 
appropriate for us to point out violations of our rules. (I can't 
resist pointing out the analogy to the GPL enforcement issue here.)

And I can't say that I think your sarcasm is very helpful, either.

Lastly, I don't even know what to make of the statement "After all, it 
just free software." Of what significance is that in this context?

Randall Schulz
