Does anybody know why my list subscribtion has been
cancelled?
I wasn't receiving any messages since February 26. Now I have subscribed
again. But I don't know what happened.....
More than likely you were automatically unsubscribed if your mail server was
consistently unreachable. The algorithm that mailman uses isn't quite this
cut and dry, but if the list tries to send you posts and 6 of them bounce
back as undeliverable, you get unsubbed by the software automatically.
Many people don't realize when this happens. Your mailbox may be full on the
server, you miss some, then you check your mail clearing it out and more
comes in, etc.
Let me know if it happens again and I'll investigate it further for you.
