[SOLVED] Not able to post to arch-general

marfig · 2010-08-05 16:27:46

I cannot seem to be able to post to arch-general@archlinux.org. I've been receiving messages from this list and a couple of days ago I was able to reply. But I made two attempts to post a new thread in the past 24 hours and nothing came out.

The list is rather slow in these past 24 hours too. Is there something wrong, or is it something on my side?

From what I can tell, your mails are being delivered to mailman properly, the last one about 16 hours ago.

Thank you wonder. I saw that too on my mail. I shall try again...

Oh, damn
That means you folks have been flooded with my emails. This is my third one. I can't see them on Thunderbird so I thought something else was wrong.

I am not saying that I see them on arch-general, I just see some mails in the postfix logs. Your last mail in my arch-general folder is almost two days old.

marfig · 2010-08-05 17:13:46

Ah, ok. I was about to comment on that. Because I couldn't see them on mailman.

Reply to your own topic and see if you get it.

You probably will not receive your own topic-starting e-mails to the list unless it's a reply to an existing one or someone else has replied. You can log into mailman and tick "receive own e-mails" or something like that.

That setting has been On since I first subscribed and edited my settings.
I've been avoiding issuing replies to other people's threads in the list since I don't want to bother anyone with a test post.But I cannot reply to my own post since... it's not there

EDIT: Just tried to reply to Wonder's test mail. No dice. So somewhere since after my last message to this list (Tue Aug 3 13:43:02 EDT 2010) I lost my ability to post to arch-general.

And again:

No idea why mailman doesn't handle them.

Ah, thanks for that log. I think it explains it all. See the problem?

Aug  5 13:34:01 gudrun postfix/cleanup[8611]: 08AF17800C: message-id=<4C5AF5F0.2070705@quiettech.org>
Aug  5 13:34:01 gudrun postfix/qmgr[550]: 08AF17800C: from=<xxxx@gmail.com>, size=2820, nrcpt=1 (queue active)

It must be the gmail SMTP server that is altering the sender to my gmail account and consequently I lose my credentials for mailman. I'll see what happens when I change to my own smtp (I don't use it often because it conflicts with my gmail account that I also manage from the same email client).

(Meanwhile, would be you be so kind and obfuscate that gmail address in your quote too? Cheers.)

Okies. Thanks a bunch for the help brain0.
Changing the SMTP server did it.
