No, there isn't one. I only pointed that out because the lists's name
might confuse someone into thinking that the list is maintained by
GIMP developers. The Gutenprint team did not complete the rebranding
for some reason, so there are some "loose ends" (if I may say so).

Humm, is there now a Gutenprint-devel list?  Perhaps thats the one I 
should be "copying"?

Thanks.

I probably should, but with a pw that short, I am still grappling with 
the fact that it doesn't appear to have ever been hacked in the 
nominally decade I've been subbed to that list. OTOH, that list or 
myself are "low value" targets I guess.  In any event, its an 
automatically generated pw, one that needs to be 3 or 4x longer before 
any claims about pw security are claimed.

By the same one, on gnome.org.

gimp-print-devel@, however, is a mailing list by a 3rd party project.
It's also a somewhat outdated mailing list name, because the project
has been known as Gutenprint for quite a long time now.

Gene has forwarded a list membership warning mail sent from a mailing
list server at SourceForge, which manages the gimp-print-devel

As you have correctly stated, we maintain the gimp lists on the
mail.gnome.org server, and so can't do anything about the SF list
configuration.


P.S. The message also contains a list membership password - which has
been changed by now, I hope?

So gimp-user-list and gimp-developer-list (both @gnome.org) are processed by 
different servers?

That does seem odd, at first, but IIRC I did have to register on it 
separately

That is an automatic 30 minute phone call because I have to convince each 
flunky answering the phone that I need to talk to someone about an email 
problem.  There is at least 4 layers of useless dweebs before I get to 
someone who at least knows what fetchmail or linux is. I only make that 
call when things are really stuffed.

That is not what the server message says. The server's message always 
says one bounce, and quotes the bounced message, the frequency of the 
messages is about monthly.  The bounce score in the message is under 2%.  
And yet I am being threatened with an automatic ubsubscribe?  It doesn't 
figure.

That should not have happened as my account on that server has been 
removed, but to be sure I just removed the wdtv.com from the sending 
choices so it can't "catch me up".

Thanks.

It went out of here addressed to you, and CC:d to the list. And I now 
have 2 copies of it from the list, only one of which shows it was To: 
the list.

It didn't leave here addressed To: the list.  To: you, and CC:'d to the 
list, but this discussion is overshadowing my complaint.

[Gimp-user] import files into GIMP?

2016-06-24 Thread apee
I'm running GIMP 2.8.16 on a MacBook OS 10.6.8

There's no File>Import pull-down menu option, or let's say I cannot find one in
the rev I downloaded a few days ago. I've seen this on the YouTube
how-to-videos. I want to bring other files into separate layers so I can create
an edited composite. But I cannot open/import/drag a second file into a newly
created layer, the original layer, or any other. Please advise on how to do this
asap. Thank you for your help. Cheers!

It's "one more bounce". Meaning that you have had many of them before - so you 
could go check the list archives and see how many of the messages you didn't 
receive, and then ask your mail provide why you didn't receive them.

Also, you are alternating between different sender addresses - @shentel.net and 
@wdtv.com. The latter is not subscribed to the gimp-user mailing lists and ends 
up in the moderation queue.
