I run a couple of fairly large mailing-lists under majordomo, and nobody ever gets ``accidentally'' unsubscribed. On the other hand, quite a few people suddenly start bouncing their mail and get *intentionally* unsubscribed (by me). We have appointed jmb as postmaster, and so long as he has that job, the list management will be done using whatever mechanisms he deems appropriate. -GAWollman -- Garrett A.

Re: MajorDomo Problems
Love to know why my freebsd-arch subscription disappeared, although the rest appeared to stick around. I just resubscribed, but was subscribed before (but not sure about until when) as [EMAIL PROTECTED] What is strange is that if that was bouncing, I would have expected, say, my -current subscription to bounce just as much and be unsubscribed. >From the files in the directory, maybe it is the case that a reboot/crash hit hub as a subscription request was being processed? (does it rewrite the file in place, or does it copy the file out with changes, then do a double rename to put it back in place over the old version?) Robert On Mon, 11 Oct 1999, Jonathan M.

I think we can separate MLA issues from MTA issues. Myself, I've had no problems with Majordomo on the various lists I manage, but I confess that on the larger mailing lists I prefer to use tools more suited for the jobs (such as Listserv). MLA issues I would be willing to discuss relatively dispassionately. However, if you're going to get into MTA religious discussions, I would suggest that people take a long hard look at Postfix instead. Of course, none of these sorts of discussions are really relevant to -current, or for that matter, relevant to any other FreeBSD-related mailing list of which I am aware. -- These are my opinions -- not to be taken as official Skynet policy |o| Brad Knowles, <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>Belgacom Skynet NV/SA |o| |o| Systems Architect, News & FTP Admin Rue Col.

MajorDomo Problems
I've been mysteriously unsubscribed from -questions sometime between Oct 7th and Oct 10th. My guess puts it at late morning/early afternoon EDT on the 7th. It would seem something is up... good thing somebody mentioned the 'which' command (I'd never heard of it), I was wondering why noone was responding to an earlier post ;) Tom Embt [EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message

I did the same and also found significant differences between the mailing lists that I am receiving mail from and the ones that majordomo thinks I am subscribed to.
