Hmm, sorry about that.

My best guess as to what happened:  Currently new subscribers are marked as
moderated, as spammers were actually subscribing to the lists to bypass the
check on mail from non-subscribers.  When I see a non-spam mail from someone
I clear this, but it's possible I missed his mail when checking through all
the spam.  The user interface for that wasn't really written with current spam
volumes in mind, so it's not great to use.

If he still has the rejection message I might be able to say more definitely.

Anyway, I've just cleared the moderation flag for him (he seems to be
subscribed from 3 different addresses).

The export code doesn't currently process the passage information.  I've
opened a ticket for that, as it ought to:

http://trac.survex.com/ticket/4

The printing code does, but I don't know if you can easily print to a file and
import that into your CAD software.
