[GNC] Who this "Jim" is, and intermittent delivery of gnucash-user posts [was: Re: gnucash_user: rounding errors and significant digits]

[John Ralls]

Jim,

And I'm sorry for making you waste your time investigating that. I didn't check the archive, I searched my local mailbox on the subject ("gnucash_user: rounding errors and significant digits") and turned up only Bruces most recent two posts. Armed with the date from your 108251 link I looked in my mailbox on that date and found your posts.

Regards,
John Ralls

However, I did receive a copy of my reply via the gnucash-user email list[2] at the time. The reply which I sent to the Bruce message today did in fact get to the archive[3]. So maybe my messages are intermittently failing to reach some gnucash-user recipients?
