So it looks more and more as if you *have* to use mutt in order to be rewarded with the option for an efficient workflow. I'm just so used to my good ole' Alpine. And others may be so used to their Thunderbird, Outlook, GMail, whatevs. But hey, maybe the vger woes will eventually become so bad that even mutt and NNTP users will be affected negatively. At that point, we may look into alternatives. Ciao, Dscho

That's quite odd, none of my coworkers are seeing behavior like this (my mail going to spam). -- Brandon Williams

Yeah its not the most streamlined process. I'm sure everyone writes their own scripts (like I did) tailored to their workflow. For example I just tag a bunch of mails in mutt and then have a scripts which 'git am's them on a branch/base of my choosing. But its specific to my workflow so idk how useful it would be to others :( -- Brandon Williams

You probably missed my previous mails mentioning https://github.com/git-for-windows/build-extra/blob/master/apply-from-public-inbox.sh You can use this script to apply single patches (identified by their Message-ID), and patch series (identified by their cover letter's Message-ID). As I mentioned at the Contributors' Summit at GitMerge 2017: I would *love* to collaborate on tools that make any part of the contribution/review process less cumbersome than it is right now.

That does explain the symptom I saw number of times, seeing list traffic that directly came to me hours before I see a copy on the public list mirrors like gmane and public-inbox. As it is a pain to access gmail inbox via imap (I was told that something called "offline imap" may alleviate the pain, but I haven't tried it yet), I tend to use NNTP interface to either gmane or public-inbox almost exclusively, so like everybody else, it often takes a message hours before I see it due to this throttling. I do not see the message I am responding to on public-inbox, and I am responding to the copy I got direct from you, for example.

Apparently, vger also throttles mail to gmail aggressively, so maybe some show up eventually: https://marc.info/?i=20170501.105057.824365162373797902.da...@davemloft.net On a side note, I just started trying the "mutt-patched" package in Debian stable. It looks like "mutt" package will absorb it's functionality in future releases, but maybe more mutt users can have NNTP support in their favorite MUA :)

My main complaints about it are high memory usage and slowness. > I tend to use NNTP interface to either gmane > or public-inbox almost exclusively, so like everybody else, it often > takes a message hours before I see it due to this throttling.

Looks like vger is down, my mail server can't make connections to it on port 25 at all. Good thing we have a reply-to-all convention here :)

I notice you're on p5p where I started to occasionally lurk a few years back. Is that something you'd be interesting in mirroring? :) Some lists I'm involved in tend to be centralized (reply-to-list, not reply-to-all); so UI changes will be needed in public-inbox... > Are you or someone else maintaining some ancillary scripts for it?

I started out ssoma(*) just for archival/mirroring, but it's mostly forgotten at this point. I would rather people build on existing protocols like NNTP. > I have one to git am a patch from a msgid, thought I should write > something to handle a series in some DWIM fashion (e.g. apply the > latest continuous sequence of patches matching --author) but figured > that someone's probably wrote this already & I don't need to hack it > up myself... I've been meaning to wire up the web search to allow downloading an entire mbox worth of search results. But it could be a bit expensive for some queries and there needs to be a limit. The current limit for web display is too small; so maybe 1000 messages per-mbox at a time to avoid DoS-ing the server. (*) some-sort-of-mail archiver: git clone git://80x24.org/ssoma

I think I figured this out yesterday. It was a dot somewhere in the name of a recipient on To:/Cc: line that is NOT double-quoted. For this thread, brian's human-readable name "brian m. carlson" was double-quoted in the original I responded to and it also was double-quoted in my response. But there was another recipient with a dot after the middle initial, which was NOT double-quoted in the original. My response seems to have been eaten because that name was not double-quoted. I saw that happen yesterday in another thread with the same recipient, and resent with the only change to double-quote that name and it went through.
