My “pleasure”

As the following screenshot shows, the vertical layout remains poor, but
there is indeed no overlap anymore:

Thank you, I marked the issue as fixed.

While this list may currently be low-volume, it is to my understanding
our mailing list which should have the highest volume. I would be happy
to report somewhere else anyway, but according to our website,
sysadmin(at)rt(dot)spi-inc(dot)org is for system administration issues. I assume
stylesheet issues should rather be reported to webmaster(at)spi-inc(dot)org,
but that still wouldn't *replace* spi-general, as it is not archived (to
my knowledge).
