Dennis,
As we've discussed previously there is almost a "religious" split
between those that work on forums and those that work on MLs and DLs.
Very few of those involved in the governance of the forums would have
anything to do with DLs/MLs and v.v.
However, what you are really talking about is a configuration issue of
the mail forwarder. It's more an application issue if we get control of
the application support. I have exactly the same issues with my mail
responder that is built into the forums.
Terry, do you know if those administrative controls extend to the
management of the mailing lists, such as the ones for
http://fr.openoffice.org (apparently at
<http://openoffice.org/projects/fr/lists>).
Do you have any information on how we can empower someone to block a
bad echo?
Every post to the more-heavily-populated lists there generates three
notices from [email protected]. Then we need to find the
subscribers whose e-mail addresses are landing at the responding site
and disable those.
I also fear that there is nothing in our planned work to preserve
these portions of the openoffice.org domain.
- Dennis

Subject: An invitation to committers to the OOo Community Forums
Anyone is able to join the OOo Community forums, but we also have a
number of closed forums use for internal management of the site. If any
committers would like to have access to these, then just make sure that
they've got an active account on the current production service (not
ooo-forums.apache.org) and email me me from it requesting access. I
will then raise you to "volunteer" so that you can see the main closed
forums.
Please note: the forum rules apply to all and all volunteers are
expected to follow them -- including me or any other committer.
Regards
Terry
