Martin, I am pretty sure (but I will probably be proven wrong) that when r-announce was created it was stated that every email got sent to both r-help and r-devel, and I see I have received emails from r-announce in the past despite only being subscribed to r-devel and not r-help. For example, I can find the announcement of R-2.13.0 (posted by P Dalgaard) (and many earlier versions), but not R-2.13.1. While I am pretty sure I have only subscribed to r-help for a brief period many years ago, I did switch my r-devel subscription from one email address to another.
I infer from your email that r-announce emails are no longer sent to r-devel subscribers (which is consistent with the text on https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-announce ).
