This meant that the announce email could not be accepted. The simplest and quickest way for the moderators to report this is to reject the announce email. This ensures that at least the RM gets the notification. Yes, I could have sent a mail to the dev list instead, but that is more work for the moderator. It's not as if I blocked all future announce emails. I merely rejected a single email. Please try to see it from the moderator's point of view. Meh. > > -- Brane >
