Venerable sir,

Welcome to the list, I hope you will find our group of some interest.
  We are delighted to have another Pali expert here, and would really
appreciate any help you can give us on some problems which might seem
elementary to you, such as the correct spellings in long composed
words.  May we ask you about them, sir?

Thank you very much in advance,

Amara
