Hi Christian, yes, I think it's possible to forward emails to a mailing list. Someone who has access to the vim organization repository can setup a vim-dev email address and configure this. In the screenshot below I tried to indicate where in the settings you can find these options: http://imgur.com/uejBuep An email address has to be verified (via clicking the confirmation link in an email). If this is a problem for a mailing list, I'm guessing github support may be able to bypass the verification step. -- -- You received this message from the "vim_dev" maillist. Do not top-post!
