Hi Philip,

You probably don’t need to quit the list. It seems as though the conflict here is that you didn’t read the reply you got. When we ask questions on mailing lists, it’s up to us to read the generous replies we get. 

If you did read the reply, and just didn’t understand what was written, I think we can probably tease that apart and address the comprehension issue. 

It *is* frustrating to write a detailed answer to a question and see the asker disregard it. But that doesn’t mean it’s time to quit: it means it’s time to listen to what the person who went out of their way to answer your question had to say. 

This shouldn’t be the end of the world.
