Yeah, I realised shortly after sending that message that this is exactly the problem this discussion is trying to get rid of. I saw at least one other post containing a similar comment though, so I didn't feel *too* foolish for writing it (although that didn't stop me wishing my email client had a "Retract stupid comment" button).
