Dear Alan, As I mentioned to you in an earlier email, the viewmail-info list is not affected. Only the Launchpad "answers" site will get pointed to Stackoverflow. Stackoverflow has much better infrastructure than Launchpad for questions & answers. Moreover, in contrast to Launchpad, which nobody looks at other than the developers, Stackoverflow is a public web site, and people with expertise with various tools can provide answers. In the example that brought this issue to the fore, the other tools involved include stunnel, gnutls, cygwin, Emacs smtp etc. Cheers, Uday
