A while back, we made a configuration change to all of our commits@ (aka cvs@) lists across the foundation so that they are unmoderated. As a side-effect, it means that all posts require @apache.org addresses or you get a bounce back from MAILER-DAEMON.
The side-effect of this (for at least Thunderbird and GMail) is that you can no longer hit 'reply all' to our commit emails without automatically also snarfing in c...@httpd as a recipient. So, if you hit 'reply all' and send from a non @apache.org address, you will get a "nice" bounce message each time you reply to the commit message unless you manually remove the recipient. From looking at the archives, I know that myself, Paul, Philip, and likely Jim have all hit this blowback to varying degrees over the last month. In light of this, Joe has suggested adding: To: undisclosed-recipients:; to headeradd for c...@httpd, overriding the normal To: [email protected]. That should prevent Reply-All from picking up the commit list, since there won't be anything in the To: or CC: fields for it to use. This should restore the ability to hit 'reply all' with Thunderbird and GMail for those of us who don't use @apache.org from addresses. Are there any objections to doing so? Thanks and have a healthy and happy new year with all of your friends and family. -- justin
