Hello Vim users,
A few weeks ago the Vim maillists were moved to the Google Groups system. For most people this worked well, but some experienced problems receiving and posting messages. That means one is successfully subscribed, but messages are not received and posting is not allowed. It took a while to figure out what went wrong. It turned out that it was caused by a denied mass-subscribe request. At first I had tried to automatically subscribe the subscribers of the old maillists at Google Groups. The requests that were denied have resulted in a special flag for the e-mail addresses in these lists. That caused the problems. I have sent this message to the people in the denied requests, but I got quite a few bounces. Thus I'm repeating the message here for others that appear to be in this situation. If you have the problems described, you can do one of these: - Subscribe with another e-mail address. - Some people reported that it started working after creating a Google account. - Contact Groups support at this URL: http://groups.google.com/support/bin/request.py I'm very sorry we caused these problems and it took so long to figure out what went wrong. -- If Microsoft would build a car... ... the oil, water temperature, and alternator warning lights would all be replaced by a single "General Protection Fault" warning light. /// Bram Moolenaar -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- http://www.Moolenaar.net \\\ /// sponsor Vim, vote for features -- http://www.Vim.org/sponsor/ \\\ \\\ download, build and distribute -- http://www.A-A-P.org /// \\\ help me help AIDS victims -- http://ICCF-Holland.org /// --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message from the "vim_dev" maillist.
