A possible reason is that mails with different From: addresses get held for moderation but nobody does moderation (at least, all my mails that had a different From: address than the one subscribed never reached the lists, and I don't assume they have all been deleted by the moderator). So make sure you use the same From: that you used to subscribe (could be envelope-form, but I doubt that). -- The choice of a -==- _GNU_ ==-- _ generation Marc Lehmann ---==---(_)__ __ __ [EMAIL PROTECTED] --==---/ / _ \/ // /\ \/ / http://schmorp.de/ -=/_/_//_/\_,_/ /_/\_\ XX11-RIPE ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.xcf.berkeley.edu http://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
