From your later mails, you seem to be the same Jamie who has asked
several times about a problem with xorg-X11 and an inability to compile
gnome-control-center.

If that is the case, you are not having any problem; we've gotten the 3
repeat mails about this issue (I at least don't know how to solve it
though), but the reason the messages are not coming back to you is
because you used your GMail account.

Gmail discards the return of your mail from the list, because it already
has a copy of this mail (in your 'Sent' folder). You will never get
mails from yourself appearing in ML threads via Gmail for this reason
(until someone replies to them, which no one has in this case).

So there is no problem, you've just encountered a GMail 'feature'.

Nope, you are not alone.  I started getting those a little while ago 
two.  Funny thing is, the only watch I have is a cheap Wal-Mart one and 
I don't wear it unless I am going out of town to meet a lady.  If a 
watch costs more than $20.00, it better be for real and VERY accurate.  LOL
