You may think that: OTOH, I'm not the one that has trouble with
communication, since I have no difficulties in reading the headers which
are present on every single posting to this list.

If someone asks a stupid question, to which he already has the answer
available, then he deserves re-education.  Pointing out that useful
information is to be found in the headers of mail messages is the
Internet equivalent of the old adage about teaching a man to fish; it's
potentially far more useful to the original enquirer than merely telling
him the information he sought.

Yours too seems more than a little suspect.
