My rejection was in the form as "Find_the_Fabulist" transcribed it, below. I suppose I should be happy (?) as it suggests she at least read the query rather than "archived" without even a glance.

I also received the "archive" email. My assumption is that it allows us to query others at the agency and gets us out of "ghost purgatory."
