Isn't the protocol to cc someone as well as the list if they reply to
you personally as well as the list (which he did to me)? I'm new to the
cygwin lists, but that has always been the case on the FreeBSD lists.
I'm happy to adapt my posting style if need be!

The beginning note was so that the mail made sense to him arriving
straight in his INBOX if he didn't read the list first.

Thanks, I am using the same configuration. Rather than my being completely
insane, maybe it is a real issue. I will build xfs with debugging symbols
as soon as I can get the time after this conference.
