Thanks Beth - it's both a good and true point. I like it.

If we do our jobs well, we always hope that our work is transparent to 
the end user. But not transparent to management!
You could use that to inform the offending email sender, or email the 
group yourself, to humorously remind them of your contribution.

"As technical writers, we always hope that the work we do in creating 
the manuals will be transparent to the end user. Apparently, we have 
succeeded admirably! Kudos to everyone on the team. -- From your 
invisible but happy technical writer."
