Thanks for the responses.
(1) has been implemented. Unsubscribed posters will promptly get a response
saying:
mspgcc-users does not accept postings from non-members. Please
resubmit your post after subscribing at:
https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/mspgcc-users
If you think that your messages are being rejected in error, contact
the mailing list owner at [email protected].
If you wish to file a bug report, please enter a ticket at:
https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=42303&atid=432701
I hope that will be a good compromise.
The user whose Boxbe account provoked (2) has not resubscribed AFAIK, though
I did try to forward this to him/her in explanation.
Signatures attached using application/pgp-signature should now pass. I'm
afraid to make more significant changes to the content filters since what's
there now seems to mostly work.
The list's reply-to behavior was also raised. Until now, the Reply-To has
rewritten to appear to come from the list, so that all responses go to the
list. This improves the visibility of discussions by avoiding loss of
answers that others might find interesting. However, it makes it fairly
difficult (at least using gmail) to respond directly to the poster: one must
hand-copy the sender's address.
As of this message, I'm trying the alternative: direct replies should go to
the poster, while group reply (reply-all) should go to both. This is the
default and recommended behavior for mailman lists.
We may lose a little public discussion until people get used to this, but I
do want to give it a try. If you have strong preferences for the existing
behavior, speak up. (Using group-reply, of course.)
We now return you to your regularly scheduled bug reports.
