One more thing, try to avoid CCing [email protected] or any of the addresses that point to one of our RT ticket queues from the mailing lists. I'm taking sysadmin out of the CC so reply to this thread to continue the conversation.

RT does not understand mailing lists and creates individual tickets for each reply. Cleaning up the tickets from mailing lists within RT takes time away from our other tasks. It isn't all that much additional work in this instance, but it is a pattern that is easy enough to avoid and can become a bigger issue on large threads. I can automate cleaning up larger threads, but creating the automation takes time too.

Best,
Michael

Is something wrong with email delivery from GNU mailing lists?

https://hostux.social/@fsfstatus says there were problems, but they
were solved 7 hours ago.

Could someone please look into this?  TIA.

Finally, after a day and a half, old email messages start to coming
in.  I've seen messages that were stuck somewhere on lists.gnu.org for
30 hours(!).


It was Bob, who spent quite a lot of yesterday (and the evening
before) working on it.  Others of us helped but Bob gets the lion's
share of credit here.

Thank you Bob.  (And thank you for continuing to mention these issues
on the list.)
