> That part is my request to you as to if you are saying that you have not received a notification from me in the last 9 days.
> All the other choices are in some way that you confirm the notification.
> My request to you in (B) was if you were saying that you have not received the notification. This is because I did send such a notification using the proper feature and there has been no response to me from the administration. I am unsure as to if you are saying from your reply to me that[(G). you do know of the notification from me but you are asking me to confirm that I sent it to you] or if you mean [(H), that you are saying that you have not seen the notification], or {something else}. The {something else} could be IMO pertaining to the grammatical structure of the second part of your reply to me,[...and nothing has happened...(after I sent it to you)...]. This leads me to think that there is the potential IMO to think that it is understood that I sent the notification, {but that there was no response to me from the administration}. Then there could be some other meaning unbeknownst to me. If you could clarify this, then I could have the opportuinty to respond accordingly.
