I've got *one* list on our system for which the administrator
does not receive notification that someone wants to subscribe. We have
a number of lists requiring admin approval for subscriptions--at least
one of which has the same administrator as the list which doesn't
successfully provide notifications.
The subscription requests are available on the "pending
requests" page; when the administrator approves those requests,
the administrator *does* receive notifications of the successful
subscriptions. The administrator also receives notifications of
unsubscriptions.
If the subscription requests are left to stand in the pending
area, the daily notices are also not received by the list admin. This
applies to both held messages and held subscription requests.
I have added myself as an administrator for that list, and have
verified this behavior. I don't receive any notifications
either--except for notifications of successful subscribes and
unsubscribes.
The 'vette' file in the logs directory shows the subscription
requests as "held"; the smtp file seems to indicate that 'a'
message was sent out on the five-minute mark, but it could be for any
list as the logfile does not indicate who the message was sent for, or
why it was sent. (And I would sort of expect it to be for 2 recips, as
there are two admins). Note that [EMAIL PROTECTED] also does not
receive anything about the subscription being held.
vette:
Mar 11
11:19:12 2002 (3201) RISA-L: held subscription request from
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
smtp:
Mar 11
11:20:02 2002 (8891) smtp for 1 recips, completed in 0.358
seconds
smtp-failure does not appear to have anything relevant in
it.
Does anyone have any idea what could cause this behavior?
(Currently, the last item in there was from February 13, and probably
corresponded to mailserver downtime.)
We have other lists where this feature works fine, including one
with the same admin.

The more
restrictions there are, the poorer the people become. The greater the
governmentıs power, the more chaotic the nation would become. The
more the ruler imposes laws and prohibitions on his people, the more
frequently evil deeds would occur.
