Re: Mail list changes for 2014
Hello everyone. The Unicode mail list has now been re-activated. If you experience trouble with subscription issues or functionality, please feel free to e-mail me directly.

Re: Mail list changes for 2014
Hi Don, Rick, Will the existing mail archives be maintained? At same location? This is a good question. The current archives are actively manufactured by Hypermail, and unless something goes terribly wrong, the archiving system will continue to work for now. There will be new Mailman archives for the lists, also, from the date of the switch-over. It hasn't been decided whether to consolidate, and how the archive documentation page will work. I'm kind of taking one step at a time. On that topic, I couldn't find the mail archive for the oldafr...@unicode.org list. Is that still maintained? There were never public Hypermail archives for that specialist list, which has been retired since April 2009. We can discuss that off-list. Regards, Rick

Re: Mail list changes for 2014
On all the lists I run, this is an option the subscriber can personally control (I agree that it is the best default). mg Scríobh 04/12/2013 00:22, Rick McGowan: Hello Bjoern-- Thanks for the note on this. I'll be sure to double check during setup. Normally our current lists are configured so that users do receive copies of messages they send.

If at all possible, please make sure this does not result in people not receiving mails they normally would, specifically mails to the list they sent or that they are copied on. I have seen some Mailman installations where the default is not to send mails in such cases, which confuses mail filtering setups.

Mail list changes for 2014
At the end of the year, we will be changing the mail list server for the public-access mail lists, including this one. The new system will be Gnu "Mailman", an interface familiar to many. This should make it easier for users to handle their subscriptions and options in one place, via the web interface. We will thus be shutting down the public mail lists over the "holiday break" in the final days of 2013, and re-open with the new system in January 2014.
