These automatic unsubscriptions are getting tedious. I'm not bouncing cctalk
mail, but I *am* bouncing all mail from cctech since I never subscribed and the
list software has ignored all reasonable efforts to unsubscribe. Evidently
there's a misconfiguration somewhere that is linking the two lists like Siamese
twins.
I did drop Jay a line offering to look at and fix the configuration, but that
mail seems to have vanished into the void along with my cctech unsubscription
attempts.
So, is there any way to receve cctalk and not cctech?

1) There is not a misconfiguration.
2) Yes, the two lists are joined like Siamese Twins. That was not my call,
and it's a royal pain. But.. "it is what it is".
3) I never received any email from you asking me to look at the issue.
Ostensibly - your mx host and ours don't like eachother (or the path
between).
4) I'd love to know how you're getting cctech traffic, since I just checked
and you are most definitely not subscribed to that list. Perhaps you are
referring to cctech posts that are gated to cctalk and the headers reflect
that? It's valid list traffic.
5) I apologize for my top-posting.

Hi Jay,
4) I'd love to know how you're getting cctech traffic, since I just checked

that? It's valid list traffic.
I investigated a similar issue with my subscription and posted on the list
about it in November last.
The short summary is as follows:
Before the big event, I was subscribed to cctech only. After the big event, I
remained subscribed to cctech only but received two copies of nearly everything,
one with:
Return-path: <cctech-bounces at classiccmp.org>
and one with:
Return-path: <cctalk-bounces at classiccmp.org>
I tried unsubscribing from cctalk. I couldn't because I wasn't subscribed.
I eventually unsubscribed from cctech and subscribed to cctalk. I found I
was getting almost no duplicates after that. The off-topic stuff wasn't a
problem because very little off-topic stuff was being posted.
However, the number of duplicates has increased recently. I suspect that I
am getting one copy of mails posted to cctalk and two copies of mails posted
to cctech, the opposite situation of when I was on cctech. Back in November,
very few postings were going to cctech so being subscribed to cctalk seemed
to be the best option at that time.
Regards,
Peter Coghlan.

I don't know about the OP, but I've been getting duplicates of some
mail. (Curiously, according to the Delivered-To: headers, both copies
came through cctech, though the rest of the headers, like List-* and
X-BeenThere, show cctalk for one copy and cctech for the other.)
I once, back very soon after the list loss-and-recovery, tried to unsub
from cctech and the automated system told me I
wasn't subscribed - but,
IIRC, it was using the envelope-from rather than the
header-From: from
my mail, so I'm not sure I entirely trust it.
I just now put an example up on ftp.rodents-montreal.org; see
/mouse/misc/classiccmp/msg-cctalk.txt and .../msg-cctech.txt for them.

I'm having the same issue. I was subscribed to cctalk only and began
getting emails from both cctalk and cctech after the list came back
online. It hasn't bothered me much since I just wrote a procmail rule to
filter it. I figured it would clear up once the list configuration stuff
got resolved.
