b) handle subscriptions to MLs closer to the literal meaning of subscribing: i.e. open a receiver's channel, nothing less and nothing more.
I'm not sure I really understand what you mean here - the above sounds like what any mailing list manager does already ? i.e. you subscribe to a mailing list and you start receiving traffic.
When you navigate a forum you usually don't need to subscribe to a topic in order to be able to post to it. In that context "subscribing" means "getting notified upon updates to the topic". My suggestion is to move MLs closer to that meaning of "subscribing".
Posting a thread/response to a thread using hyperkitty automatically subscribes you as a nomail subscriber to the list, so the forums analogy stays relevant if the user ends up using hyperkitty.
Perhaps all this is a nice on paper but is horribly bad as far as cost- efficiency is concerned, which may well be the case if mailman3 does not easily bend to such fine-tunings. I have no way of knowing that beforehand unless I discuss these things here :)
Well, I would probably recommend suggesting some things upstream as well, we are deploying this as a solution that's a huge improvement for us, but may not be sufficient for the users yet. If you let me know after getting a feature upstream, I would be glad to deploy it to our servers. https://gitlab.com/mailman LCP [Stasiek] https://lcp.world -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner@opensuse.org
