[OSGeo-Discuss] Mailing list configuration change proposal
As part of a mailing list modernization effort the SysAdmin group has been recently evaluating improvements aimed at reducing email loss due to anti-spam measures and has come up with recommendation that are summarized here: https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/SAC:Mailing_Lists#Configuring_the_mailing_list In particular the last item was added to avoid tampering content and thus breaking cryptographic signatures made by authors on their emails, which is discussed in depth here: https://trac.osgeo.org/osgeo/ticket/3011 Some mailing lists have already implemented these changes (postgis-devel and sac for sure, I'm not sure which others). This thread is to ask if anyone has objections about changing the configuration of this list too. Notable changes will be: 1. No more [OSGeo-Discuss] prefix in email subjects 2. No more added footer 3. Real sender address in the From field 4. DKIM signed emails will not be considered maliciously tampered \o/ For filtering the emails or finding mailing list address to change user preferences you will be able to use the email headers. Many mail user agents should be able to figure this out by themselves, others might need manual configuration. Just as an example, my mail configuration for the PostGIS Developers looks like this (procmail recipe): :0 * ^List-ID:.*postgis-devel.lists.osgeo.org * !^X-List-Administrivia: yes .postgis-devel/ --strk; ___ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.osgeo.org https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
