OK I've been trying to subscribe to internal for a few days and I just
succeeded but it was tough.
So, first issue is the form at https://secure.php.net/mailing-lists.php
I tried using it to subscribe but it didn't work. I inspected the
requests and found out that it was submitting to
https://php.net/mailing-lists.php which was redirecting to
https://secure.php.net/mailing-lists.php. This was losing the POST
request in the process.
The reason why seems to be this line:
<base href="https://php.net/mailing-lists.php">
Once I tried submitting with CURL on
https://secure.php.net/mailing-lists.php directly it worked and I got
the confirmation email. I replied to it and so far I didn't get a reply
saying that I've been actually subscribed.
In the meantime I tried the instructions on the page to subscribe
directly to the list:
Either send a message to php-whatever-h...@lists.php.net (as in,
php-general-h...@lists.php.net)
Sending a message to that address (or to
php-internals-h...@lists.php.net) got me a message asking me to reply to
confirm I wanted to post to the mailing list. I didn't want to. I tried
php-internals-subscr...@lists.php.net and never got any message either.
After getting the confirmation message after fixing the php.net form I
got an email from internals-h...@lists.php.net, so it seems that the
"php-" prefix is not actually used? I tried to send an email to
internals-subscr...@lists.php.net and no luck either.
(I also tried mailing webmas...@lists.php.net and got address not found,
this is getting really confusing!)
