Indeed, I hadn't realized that my cc:s to public-webapps and public-html were being dropped *silently*, without any bounce message. If that's due to the configuation of those lists, then it's a rather user-hostile mailing list behaviour, IMHO -- problems with spam notwithstanding. A subsequent attempt to subscribe to public-html as per the instructions at <http://www.w3.org/Mail/Request>, bounced with error "550 Unrouteable address (state 14)". Mark, please forward this. -- David-Sarah Hopwood ⚥ http://davidsarah.livejournal.com _______________________________________________ es-discuss mailing list es-discuss@mozilla.org https://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/es-discuss
