Indeed, this was of concern to me when you asked me to use a business
address earlier today too, but I didn't know how to put it quite so
eloquently into words.

I also speak only for myself and nothing I write is in anyway the view
or the words of the organisation who's domain I have mailed from.

I do not want to have to prefix that to every posting, nor do I want
there to be any confusion by anyone in future. Thus, as I have responded
to the mails you addressed directly to me now, I'll also respectfully
request that you un-subscribe this address from the list.

I would very much like to participate in future, so please do let me
know if ever you'll allow subscriptions from personal addresses again.

I do also note that you already have membership on _at_gmail.com and
_at_hotmail.com addresses already. I can provide one of the former if that
helps.

So long and thanks for all the fish,
Daniel
