The person you've been meaning to send this message to isn't a subscriber
of the bug-hurd mailing list (IIRC), so he didn't receive your reply.
IIRC, some days ago, I moderated his message to allow it to appear on
bug-hurd.

Hurd and also most of the other GNU mailing lists do accept posts from
addresses which are not subscribers of the respective mailing lists, so
please, everyone, simply get used to use the `g' key in Mutt (as an
example) or your mailer's ``reply to all'' functionality when replying to
posts.  I'd say it's better to have a person receive a duplicate message,
than not have him receive the reply at all you've just been spending time
on writing.

This is written down on
<http://www.bddebian.com/~wiki/mailing_lists/unmoderated/>,
<http://www.bddebian.com/~wiki/mailing_lists/> and
<http://www.bddebian.com/~wiki/community/communication/>.
