Due to the move to anonymous messages I unsubscribed from the list. However
I'm still getting messages. Did the changes break unsubscribing or am I not
being patient enough?

I use Gmane to access the mailing list, and with new change *every*
post is shown as coming from "Fossil SCM user's discussion". This is
a *massive* degradation in the usability of the list for me, and
presumably for those others of us that use Gmane. Please revert this
change!

No, I don't think they can.
The limitation is that the Fossil list is run on software (Mailman

imagining (myself included).
At the very least the list would have to

I agree. I just don't know of an alternative. Suggestions are welcome
The only problem (or annoyance) I see with that is that we don't know from who
the email come from unless we look at the signature at the bottom.

As anyone who has recently posted to this mailing lists probably
already knows, some miscreant has again set up a reply-spam bot.
Whenever you post to this list, the bot sends porn-spam as a private
reply. Because the reply is private, there is nothing the mailing
list can do to filter it out.
