No, I haven't. If nothing else this list's use of reply-to took care of
that for me, but I have checked my sent mail folder too.

Neal explained this last time, list traffic goes into his INBOX, there
is no need to have mailed him directly:

        Unfortunately since I'm subscribed to this list as lot of your
        emails got picked up as well.  I think if you send something to
        the list and I received it, my program thought you were emailing
        me directly

I shouldn't have to unsubscribe, I never subscribed in the first place!
Neither implicitly nor explicitly.

The only reason I'm not being exceptionally rude right now is that it
does appear to have been a genuine mistake, albeit for the second time.

Neal has explained this second transgression, I'm satisfied with that. I
hope it won't happen again.

Anyway, this is rapidly off-topic for arm-netbook particular list, so
I'll drop it now.

Ian.
