One additional minor comment to the original e-mail - in general, it's 
better to send sample code as text rather than a screenshot, because the 
text version allows reproducing your situation and proposing alternative 
versions more easily, whereas the screenshot requires retyping your test 
program. Obviously, copying the compiler output as simple text is 
possible as well, but that isn't that important here (it would decrease 
the size of your e-mail, which might still make sense in case of a 
message sent to hundreds of people via the mailing list, but the size 
wasn't that big measured by today's e-mail "standards").
