Who now owns the website domain name?
What i am really asking is, how easy would it be to set up a temporary
forwarder for emails to a moderator from [email protected] and
[email protected]. If you own the A record and the mail server
it is easy.
As you suggest, technically easy. But would it be desirable?
There's already been quite a long notice period, and evidently people
haven't switched over -- providing a "temporary" forwarding facility
would only prolong the agony, as I reckon a goodly number of people will
switch when and only when they're forced to, and not before. I'd rather
see an autoreply from the old list address asking people to resubscribe.
My main concern stems from the fact that together they still generate
as much if not more mail/queries than this list.
Maybe there's some doubt in some people's minds as to which is the
better list to get a needed answer from, so they stick to the tried and
trusted. Besides, I could name at least one sufferer of 'chronic
novophobia' :-)
