Sometimes it's hard to know if an agent responds to all queries, but Ali does. Here's an excerpt from her automatic reply when sending a message through QM. Hope this helps anyone that may still be waiting.
"...your work and the time you invested in writing it and querying me is still important to me, and you will get your fair shot with me, even if it requires a wait. So if you are writing to check the status of your query, please don't consider a non-response so far a pass. Your query may be in my "maybe pile" or I may not have read it yet to respond. Thank you!"

2 days to deadline, and no response. I'm thinking my query is in a black hole.
