Jared has done some looking in to this. We believe that what Michael is referring to is actually in the unofficial Google group that the real mailing list has been linked in to for peoples convenience, and linked to from the site because it is a resource even if unofficial. It seems there are a fair number of postings made to there that never make it to the main list, but I'm not sure why that is -- I don't use Google groups and haven't used (or admin'd one) in like 5 years or so. I'm trying to track down who actually "owns" that group so we can remove the offending spambots. > > So many questions go unanswered on this mailing list. > > That usually means noone has an answer. > > -Rob -- Melissa Draper w: http://meldraweb.com & http://geekosophical.net -- ubuntu-au mailing list ubuntu-au@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-au
