Can somebody fix that deactivated account on the list?
The suse-security help message states:
If you need to get in touch with the human owner of this list, please send a message to: <suse-security-owner@suse.com>
Complaining on this list (and to all subscribers), as you did, probably won't help too much.
Correct. We can unsubscribe it in this case. ;)
But I reported him last the 1th of this month, to suse-security-owner; I got no answer that time, and still more bounces came.
Well, it might surprise some of us to discover that the "list owner", often also has other jobs at Suse, and it takes a while to get thru all the stuff in their own mailboxes <G>
I know. And that he(they) probably maintain the list on their free time also.
But that explains why some people have to try another avenue of reporting problems with the list. For example, several times the lists (all of them I subscribed to) stoppped working, usually on Sundays. In those cases, even the -owner mail address was not working. I hopped that the problem would be solved next Monday, but that was not so. Finally, I had to report it to Feedback to get attention and get it solved. This has happened several times, but apparently has not repeated for a month.
This case, reported by the OP, I had reported myself on Feb 1. Several days later, I posted to the list, and got the bounce back. And, when I posted 3 days ago, the bounce was there as well - it has been repeating over most of this month! So, the question remains: what do we do to report bounces and such problems, and at least know that somebody got it?
The mailing list administration is a bit lacking, admittedly. I have however now taken ownership of this list personally, so response time should be better. Ciao, Marcus
