Subject: List memberships and duplicates [was Re: Yay, now I need some
Osborne boot media!]
Me too. I tried unsubbing from cctech and was told I wasn't
subscribed. So I've just left it, figuring Jay has bigger fish to fry
for the moment - if it really bugged me I'd procmail the cctech copy to
/dev/null. If it's still going on whenever it seems to me it's worth
mentioning again (a month? two?), I may see if Jay has the spare cycles
then to deal with it.
I'm not seeing the same thing. That may be the case on
some occasions, but the emails that I received today
that were duplicated *both* were addressed to cctech!
So I don't think I can set up a rule to delete the duplicate :(
You're probably signed up under two different
email addresses; check
the address on your incoming mail and if they're different unsub one
of them.
It looks like I'm getting one copy of each message with a cctech
From: address and a second copy of each with a cctalk From: address.
I suspect, though, that this is one of the things that's behind the
recent requests for mailman expertise, and that not much will happen
until someone(tm) picks up that task. (I sure don't have that
expertise, or I'd've spoken up; my interactions with mailman have been
as a listmember, not as any kind of admin.)
Agreed.
I'm surprised that there isn't (or doesn't yet appear to be)
anyone with sufficient mailman experience to help solve
the issues, considering the number of techy people on both
lists.
