Hi,
Figured this would be the best place to report this.
I just tried again to subscribe to the developers list and discovered that
you couldn't confirm your subscription just by replying.
The message text implies that the confirmation key should be in the
subject, but the confirmation key was in the From address of the
confirmation message (see below). Replying simply send me a message
telling me that the subject line was being ignored. It seems the confirm
code was also ignored.
Not sure how it's meant to work but it's the first time I've had to resort
to clicking on the URL.
Oh and I notice that this is Mailman 2.1.12. :)
Geoff.
