It's incredibly unreasonable to expect immediate responses from a group of volunteers. Personally, it takes me over 2 hours just to make a first pass over the day's emails in the morning. This means not even replying to anything or reading any content seriously. That's just deleting the excess postings I have no direct interest in. Then I go over patches, that can take 3 hours or more. And then, and only then, can I look at bug reports and other things which are not new patches. And your mail falls into that category because you didn't post a proper patch, and if you did you'd need to properly signoff on the patch and provide a properly formed commit message. You just need to be patient.
