Hello Dr. Vitaly Chaban,
Thank you. I asked a friend in our Dept. for help who is working on
different aspects of the more or less similar system. The message below
was sent on behalf of me. I apologize if I should not have done this. We
thought maybe it does not matter under which name messages are sent on
the gmx list and the idea of using mailing list is to share knowledge
regardless of names. I hope this has not offended you and other users.
I am also asking Justin to let me know if I have violated mailing list
rules. I make sure this will not happen again.
http://www.gromacs.org/Support/Mailing_Lists#Mailing_List_Etiquette
Having others send information around haphazardly to different individuals and
from colleagues or aliases just slows down your overall progress, since we don't
know who's getting (or providing) what information, or if the discussions are
even connected. Keep everything on the list and reply directly to questions
posed to you with as much detail as you can.
It's also not a good idea for anyone to complain that "no one on the list could
help much." I had been trying to extract the necessary diagnostic information
from you, but perhaps not at the pace you'd like. Problems aren't solved
instantly, especially via email by people who have only a very vague idea of
what you're doing.
-Justin
Thank you,
Best regards,

Hey Eli:
What is the correlation observed between you and Moeed?
I suppose you eventually compressed your system so much, that it
became very distorted. Check your GRO file. I believe it is not
healthy inside.
Regards.
