Re: (175/6 Visa) 18 March 2011 letters
I found on another forum a PLE reply to an application lodged on 12th August 2010 for 175. The new deadline for 18th March e-mail receivers seems to be 30th September. Disappointing! 
Dear Client,
Thank you for your email in relation to your visa application under Australia's General Skilled Migration program.
Thank you for your enquiry and your advice that you have completed all items requested in this email. I note your concern that you have not yet been contacted by a case officer in regards to your General Skilled Migration (GSM) application.
I can confirm that applicants in Priority Group 3 who were emailed in March 2011 are still expected to have their application considered shortly.
As explained in this email, priority processing arrangements are in place covering the order of assessment of GSM applications. These arrangements are set in a Direction issued by the Minister and must be followed. Applications from people who are nominated by a state or territory government agency with a nominated occupation that is specified on that state or territory?s state migration plan continue to be allocated as the highest priority.
A higher than anticipated number of higher priority applications have been received in recent months, impacting the Department's ability to allocate cases within your priority group.
Despite this, GSM can confirm that the assessment of applications in your priority group continues each week in significant volumes, after the allocation of any outstanding higher priority applications.
It is now expected that you will be contacted by your case officer by 30 September 2011. We request that you allow this period of time for your application to be assessed before contacting the Department.
You may continue to undertake any of the requirements of the March 2011 email that are incomplete, referring to the guidance provided in that email.
In the meantime you may wish to follow the published dates for GSM applications currently being considered, available by sending a blank email to [email protected].
Yours sincerely,
<<name snipped>>

DIAC says that it is an Automated Email reply na?
"How to find out when your application will be allocated
If you would like to know the latest information about which applications (by date received) have most recently been allocated to a case officer, please send a blank email to the GSM mailbox. This mailbox will send you an automated reply email response with the current allocation dates for each GSM visa subclass.
Email: [email protected]"
