Hi Pine, Mailman mailing lists have online archives. Looking at https://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/ee/2014-December/date.html , it appears unlikely that donate@ automatically forwards to this list.
And: I know you're just trying to help, but before CC'ing various busy people who have nothing to do with this issue (why not include Lila too?), please do some more research on who might have. Thank you! On Thu, Dec 11, 2014 at 11:29 AM, Pine W <[email protected]> wrote: > > Hm, is the donate@ email address automatically forwarding emails to EE? > If so, this is a problem.
