[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Several days ago I reported bug in Gnu emacs using the M-x report-emacs-bug command, but have received no response, contrary to the stated emacs policy of responding to such reports within a day or so.  Did you receive my report, or should I send it again?
Yours truly,

Please tell more about the bug you sent: its Subject, or the actual
report, or some other information we could use to try to find your
report in the bug database.  I tried searching using your name, but
couldn't find anything.

Did you receive an automated response from the bug-tracker with a bug
number?  If not, maybe your report was classified as spam for some
reason.

I've checked the mailman logs on debbugs.gnu.org. The only reference for
lewcreary <at> cs.com, your email address, is

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
Oct 11 22:24:35 2023 (746) post to debbugs-submit from lewcreary <at> cs.com, size=7466, message-id=<1965688274.4309065.1697077337578 <at> mail.yahoo.com>, success
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

This is the message which has arrived for *this* report,
bug#66474. However, the logs show only accepted messages. If a message
is discarded by a moderator, we won't see it in the logs, and you won't
receive an information about.

I recommend you re-submit your bug report. In parallel you might send me
a note containing the complete sent message, including all headers.

Best regards, Michael.

There is no hit for the string "lewcremaceary" in the debbugs mailman
logs. However, not all logs are based on email address. But all of them
trace the Message-ID. So for a better search I need the Message-ID of a
lost message.

Best regards, Michael.

I hope that helped, in any case this is not a bug in Emacs itself so I'm
closing the bug report now.
