after this mail, i'm going to shutdown the mailserver.

i'm happy this list was useful to lots of people for many many years.
jo was the first one to set it up and i took it over because it was
hosted on one of my servers.

the volume of messages went down a lot in the last few years. i heard
lots of complaints that mails are marked as spam. some providers
(namely laposte.net and t-online.de) refuse to accept mail from us. i
reached out to them multiple times, but to no avail. i feel
maintaining the mailing list doesn't carry its weight anymore.
especially given that there are so many other ways to get in touch.

thanks for the nice words mica and pascal!

all the best,
-chressie
