Hi,
I had some specific problems with sending emails the php.net domain, as
the mail-server was bouncing all my emails (the actual problem is the
subject a separate thread). I was kindly referred one of your admins
and contacted him though his personal mailbox, and in a reply he
correctly commented that I should "use the appropriate channels like
everyone else, including the submission of bug reports and emails to
syst...@php.net".
Can I first apologise to those concerned for this breach of netiquette.
Can I also make a couple of points:
1) IFAIK, nowhere on the php.net website is there any such direction or
reference to syst...@php.net, and specifically on
http://www.php.net/mailing-lists.php -- (run the google query
"syst...@php.net" site:php.net -site:bugs.php.net
to see what I mean). You just have to know that the "systems" list is
the correct one to address such issues to. It would be really useful
include these contact details (or suitable alternatives) in the
appropriate php.net web pages.
2) Asking a developer to contact a DL, when he or she has problems
accessing the php.net DLs is a catch-22. Without a webform alternative
to help resolve such issues, developers will either need to abandon
contributing to PHP or resort to emailing individual community members.
