It's posted in the Book forum, and collectors of books would be interested in perserving their books and dust jackets, no?

Sorry! I must have closed it by mistake when considering - but quickly deciding against - merging it with either of these threads:

FWIW, the best/quickest course of action for such apparent glitches usually is to email a mod.

Thanks for re-opening the thread. I did report the thread, so shouldn't that have generated an email to you?

It should!

someone did say something that should have alerted me a week or so back but, as a few tests seem to be bearing out, methinks there are continuing email forwarding probs!

Thanks for drawing this to my attention! Normal service will be resumed asap.

[Anyone else reading this who has emailed lately.... I'm not ignoring you; I just didn't get it!]

Oddly, emails sent directly to your email address have bounced back to me in the past, but if I go through the forum software, it works.
