Don't worry about it.
One of the don't that most of us know is "Don't ridicule the grammar and
spelling of contributors to the list." Those that do have too much time
on their hands. Most people are zipping in and out of their mail reader
in the middle of 20 other things throught the day. We aren't paid to
produce the best email we possibly can. We are paid for our real job
and use this list to help us with that job. Should we have to watch
every character or word we type, we would never type a character or
word. Do the best you can, get the message out and get back to the job
in your real world.
It wasn't you that made the embarrassing mistake.

My opinions are mine, and neither you nor my company can take credit for
them.
