I also don't play Sender Confirmation games, particularly when the

You've been removed from the Cc: line in this reply.

You asked for help, but set the Cc: line as if you weren't subscribed.
Anyone who posts to this list, can IMNSHO, accept the fscking replies 
you set in the Cc: line of your message or do without the reply.

Read it here, or don't read it at all, doesn't bother me.
