[Solved]Tried to be helpful and now... I am getting no mailing lists

pauline123 · 2011-05-21 22:11:58

The other day, I was trying to be helpful and I followed the example of a situation in this post. I do not know how soon after it this happened but I stopped receiving ALL mailing lists that I am subscribed to from Arch Linux. I would be posting this to the mailing list, but I do not know which one it would be best fitted to. The list I sent my message to was aur-general. It included in it what I thought was going to be helpful for a package that is not in the AUR (it is in extra, just like the thread I referenced), but somehow that communication with the list seems to have gotten me to the point where I cannot receive any mailing lists from Arch Linux.

I will admit this could somehow be my fault, I am not above accepting blame. I would however like to know what happened.

Your thread looks innocuous enough http://mailman.archlinux.org/pipermail/ … 14657.html

Check your spam filter etc... It seems unlikely that this would be a deliberate move by the list maintainer

I can almost guarantee that it is not given none of us really touch the mailing lists unless under extreme duress...

Thanks, Jasonwryan. I've checked they are not arriving in my spam folder, or anywhere else on my gmail account. They were arriving perfectly fine into my gmail inbox and now they are gone. I also doubt that it is a move intentionally affecting me, I am just perplexed on the situation. I have tried checking everything that I can think of. If someone else can think of why they are possibly not arriving I will check it.

Does anyone else use gmail? If so are they arriving? Is it a gmail issue? I am hesitant at creating another email account if it is something that I did.

I can log into my subscriber account for the mailing lists.

I still get Arch ML digests.

I use gmail for my ML subscriptions, and haven't experienced any issues. Try resubscribing to the list(s) and see if that helps.

Ok. I will try that. Thanks so far.

Well, I think that solved it. At minimum I have the welcome messages from each one that I was signed up to. Hopefully I will get more than just the mailing list welcome email. Thanks for your assistance.

No problem. If it does work out, please mark your thread as solved.
