Problems with gmane.comp.handhelds.openmoko.devel

Mike Montour — 2008-07-23T15:58:15

The overview page at http://dir.gmane.org/index.php?prefix=gmane.comp.handhelds.openmoko shows an entry for "gmane.comp.handhelds.openmoko.devel", however it is not a clickable link like every other entry on that page. If I go to "http://list.gmane.org/devel< at >lists.openmoko.org" as suggested by the FAQ, I get a page showing that gmane.comp.handhelds.openmoko.devel is mapped to devel< at >lists.openmoko.org but no messages are available. Through NNTP some articles show up, but it looks like they are coming from the "buglog" list rather than from "devel". The other Openmoko lists work OK - it's only "devel" that is giving me a problem. Note that the Openmoko lists have been re-organized recently; the current ones are shown at http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/ .

This is a message from the mysql MTAs. Take it up with the mysql admins.

No, SA is on for all groups. There must be something in the messages that makes SA think they aren't spam...

I use a stock, unpatched version of SpamAssassin. Whatever they think is spam is what I think is spam.

Re: Subject commas lost in direct link

Lars Magne Ingebrigtsen — 2008-07-23T03:39:17

weft is slightly too enthusiastic about cleaning up the titles. I've now fixed commas in the source, and it'll go into production whenever I next recompile. Which should be any year now.

Some slight mismatches between the data in weaverd and what actually exists is to be expected.

Lars Magne Ingebrigtsen — 2008-07-23T03:23:49

Yes, probably. Alternatively, I could just start always showing the year. Perhaps in two-digit format.

Hello, * Ryan Cross ryancross.com>[2008-07-22 04:03]: The processing of subscription requests requires human activity and thus usually takes a few days. But I've just checked and did not find any request for projectpier in our system. Could you submit the request again, please? Thanks, Wolfgang

Ryan Cross — 2008-07-22T02:03:12

Hi, Hope I'm not being overly anxious, but I was trying to get a mailing list posted yesterday and I haven't gotten a confirmation yet. I was having some issues with my email host and wasn't sure if the request got dropped because of that. I am also trying to get 3 other (related lists) subscribed and am not sure if I need to request them each seperately, or if the comments I included in the form are enough. Thanks!

Re: IETF tools list issues (was: Errata)

Frank Ellermann — 2008-07-19T17:00:43

Update: The RFC-I issue was fixed (ietf.org unlisted), talking about 667 RFC numbers should not more trigger GMaNe's spam filter. In a discussion with an ietf.org list admin we concluded that GMaNe changing its address to an unsubscribed address was a glitch not requiring special workarounds on their side. Potential things to do on GMaNe's side: * fix the IETF Tools list subscription, i.e. either use the old subscribed address, or subscribe the new address * maybe detect the format of challenges for unsubscribed addresses, but I fear that could make such obscure issues worse * accept X-Newsreader as good UA header like X-Mailer in the spam score * maybe detect articles injected via GMaNe, and don't flag them as spam automatically Frank

Message to gmane newsgroup comes back with Mail Delivery Failed marked as spam

Edward Diener — 2008-07-19T11:08:33

I signed up for the mailing list for MySql++ developers. I noticed that this mailing list was mirrored by a Gmane group, gmane.comp.db.mysqk.c++. I attempted to send a message to this Gmane group and got back the authorization required message. I replied and received the "You are now authorized to post to the gmane.comp.db.mysql.c++ newsgroup" message. When I try to post to this group I always receive a Mail Delivery failed message with: plusplus< at >lists.mysql.com SMTP error from remote mailer after end of data: host lists.mysql.com [213.136.52.31]: 552 spam score exceeded threshold (#5.6.1) My message contains no spam and I reprint it here: Subject: Inserting rows with SSQLS and auto-increment columns Body: When creating an SSQLS for inserting a row of data, where the first data element of the SSQLS structure is an auto-increment column, how do I specify that element's type in the SSQLS structure and to what do I set that element before calling query.insert for my data ?

IETF tools list issues (was: Errata)

Frank Ellermann — 2008-07-18T09:33:21

Hi, something with the IETF Tools list doesn't work. GMaNe used to be subscribed as whatever< at >gmane.org, and that worked at least until 2008-07-08: GMaNe identified this mail injected via GMaNe as spam. That's kind of odd, if it's really spam, why forward it to the list ? The score says: | X-Spam-Report: 5.5 points; | * -0.0 SPF_HELO_PASS SPF: HELO matches SPF record | * -0.0 SPF_PASS SPF: sender matches SPF record | * 2.5 UNIQUE_WORDS BODY: Message body has many words used only once | * 0.4 DNS_FROM_RFC_ABUSE RBL: Envelope sender in abuse.rfc-ignorant.org | * 1.4 DNS_FROM_RFC_POST RBL: Envelope sender in postmaster.rfc-ignorant.org | * 1.2 PRIORITY_NO_NAME Message has priority, but no X-Mailer/User-Agent Unfortunately the IETF is listed as postmaster and abuse ignorant since 2008-02-22, I didn't know that. That my UA has no X-Mailer/User-Agent is IMO a bogey: When posting via GMaNe the UA is a "Newsreader", and it has a X-Newsreader, as "specif

Hello, The group gmane.network.jabber.google-talk.user seems to be 95% spam and many postings there should actually be recognized by SA without any problems. Is SA somehow deactivated or not working for that group? Sebastian

feature idea: allow partial group name in searchform

Miernik — 2008-07-16T04:13:03

I wanted to search about Firefox in a group (or groups) about Gentoo. But I don't remember exactly what the group name is called. But for sure it has "gentoo" in it. So to save time looking up the group's name, and possibly for allowing to simultaneously search groups with the same word in the name in different hierarchies, it would be nice to allow to search just like this: http://search.gmane.org/?query=firefox&group=gentoo So you don't have to type "linux.gentoo.*" in there, just the one part that is relevant.

Re: Allow posting through Gmane

Steinar Bang — 2008-07-12T08:21:06

Some versions of mailman (used to be: not the one used by sourceforge) looks at the envelope sender, and the envelope sender is the email address gmane is subscribed with. So with those mailman versions things should be ok.
