Re: [GENERAL] Subcribing to this list, what's the secret?
If you have a dot in your gmail username, take it out. Gmail ignores it and validation scripts often puke on it. Then use that email as your reply to, not some nonexistent carp. - Ian On 12/13/06, wheel [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I seem to have a natural knack for hitting the ruts around here, which is exciting.

I did see your previous email but thought you must have been doing something wrong. Per this morning's discussion, there was a DNS misconfiguration that prevented the webserver from resolving email addresses. It's claimed to be corrected now. regards, tom lane ---(end of broadcast)--- TIP 9: In versions below 8.0, the planner will ignore your desire to choose an index scan if your joining column's datatypes do not match

Going to: http://www.postgresql.org/community/lists/subscribe and entering my gmail address worked, and I tried a username that contained a period, and that worked too.
