To be clear on this, we are not saying that we don't want to help you
because your mail is not well formatted, but that is really hard to
try to read the text and try to make out the parts of the reports when
paragraphs are not separated from each other. The text is hard to
follow and that puts down people that can invest their own spare time
(remember we're all volunteers) in fixing issues that are easier to
spot.

So actually, we are asking you to do yourself a favour and try, at
least to format that mail so is readable without making an effort, so
we can help you :-) .
