I'm on gmail too, and I see 7 posts in this thread: 3 from RKumar and 2 each from Brian and you. It has sometimes happened to me that some people get flagged as spammers by Gmail. Check your Trash folder, maybe Gmail is sending Brian's emails there. Several times I've had to go there and flag them as not spam. Jesus.
