If you next time should send a request, don't forget to quote the error
message.

When you subscribed to the list, you should have noticed that the first
sentence is "Please read
community.ubuntu.com/contribute/support/mailinglists/ about mailing
etiquette."

You send a multipart message including HTML.

A summary of
http://community.ubuntu.com/contribute/support/mailinglists/ including
the info about HTML:

"[snip] Write your email underneath the email which you are replying to
 [snip] remove any unnecessary text
 [snip] Avoid sending emails in HTML format
 [snip] When replying to messages, use [snip] Reply To List function
 [snip] When starting a new subject, do not reply to a previous email
 [snip] Replying to digest emails breaks the threading [1]
 [snip]"

Text should be wrapped after around 72 chars, "endless" lines are only
welcome, when posting code.

If an issue is solved, then it's common practise to add '[solved]' to
the subject.
