Now that the time on your computer is fixed, why don't you also try to
use some standard quoting techniques in your mails ? The one most commonly
used is to prefix ">" on all the lines in the original message (This is
done automatically by most MUAs). The lines without the ">" is
obviously yours - and MUAs like mutt can be setup to display the quoted
part and the message parts in different colors which makes it easy to
distinguish between the two. When you use "Kaushik>" for your lines
(and that too only in some places), it becomes extremely difficult to
make out which part of the message is yours..

One should compare apples with apples - not with peanuts ;-).. Though I
don't know the relative payscales in the UK, the equivalent of 35K pounds
is not such a huge figure to be paid for *any* sysadmin in the US. So
did you checkout how much an NT sysadmin at approximately the same
experience level gets in the UK?
