Well, I can't see whether anyone sent you your solutions. Anyway, is is not usual to email stuff to people, so I'm guessing you got no replies.

OK, here is a QBasic program with your puzzle hardcoded.
http://www.network54.com/Forum/178387/message/1132625620/

It will run in interactive mode is about 20 seconds and not only produce all solutions, but also show the logic used to get them.

To filter out just the solutions, run this from the DOS prompt that you ran the program in:
find "Got" dump.txt > Solutions.txt

Curious to know why you needed these.

How did you determine that 1592 solutions exist? Presumably, you must have used some software. Surely that software would have listed each solution.

Sadman's Sudoku program easily shows that there are 1592 solutions and has each one in a list you can view. Recommend you d/l it and give it a go.
