Please let me know if if anyone sees a problem in that. There is currently about 70 messages in the held queue, some also from known people, just from non-subscribed addresses. It is surely better if people are notified in such cases?
I guess regularly monitoring and approving the posts from known people would be a better solution, but given the amount of spam some lists get this can take a fair amount of someones time.
Yes, that is exactly the point. I have just spent the better part of three days clearing out held messages, from all lists. I started out with more than 20'000 :-(
The Heroes list is a very "mild" case, but the problem is the same as everywhere else.
Yeah presumable most people use the ticketing system to raise issues but I can kinda see a usecase for someone who is not a list member wanting to send an email on a specific topic without subscribing. Where as for most lists maybe other then project and the support ones requiring subscription probably makes sense. -- Simon Lees (Simotek) http://simotek.net Emergency Update Team keybase.io/simotek SUSE Linux Adelaide Australia, UTC+10:30 GPG Fingerprint: 5B87 DB9D 88DC F606 E489 CEC5 0922 C246 02F0 014B
