Could you please look into it? Just following up on the list, Galder and I talked in #fedora-admin today. There's a routing issue between our smtp server and the jboss.org server (since both are internal to RH it's a special case) Galder now has a working account and I think the routing issue has also been resolved, just waiting for some verification. Indeed, it's solved now :). Thanks to all! -Mike -- Fedora-websites-list mailing list Fedora-websites-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-websites-list
