Ok, it seems like this one didn't show up under the right thread. I moved the 
talk-gb@openstreetmap.org to the CC section and emailed m...@good-stuff.co.uk 
directly, but it didn't show up under that thread. The way I originally did it 
is by clicking on the email in the archive, which loads a mailto link, however 
it only loads talk-gb@openstreetmap.org . How do you respond to threads that 
you haven't been emailed properly?
