Yeah, the list lost one of my emails recently too, first time it happened. It was an email in the recent virus-scanner thread. I have the "sent" record, but it never showed up. I've seen something similar to this before, then the email shows up about 2 weeks later. (Canivore scanners are acting up again :-)) -- use Perl; #powerful programmable prestidigitation

They both were posted, he just broke something on his end and never bothered to check the archives.

Email doesn't get "lost" like that. Look at your mail logs or contact ml-admin@suse.com and ask (be sure to include the aproximate time as the logs on lists.suse.com are +500M per day). -- -ckm

I just checked the ARCHIVES for the email in question, and it's
not there. I guess that just leaves the question open, where did it go?
Here are the headers from my "sent mailbox".

In "/etc/syslog.conf" I have the line: mail.debug -/var/log/mail.debug There I can check if there was a problem in the mail transfer. Of course, at home I don't have that many messages (now that I think, the new law here forces providers to store all logs (headers?) for a year). -- Cheers, Carlos Robinson
Yes I have lost a couple of post to this list and some to other list also, as well as some e-mail files to others. What is going on. David zentara wrote:

Since you never contacted ml-admin or postmaster you'll never know. -- -ckm

I've seen mail I've posted not make it through to the archives at lists.suse.com/archives, but I've never seen a mail I've posted not make it through the list server at all. I sometimes get mail addressed both to me and to the list, only the from-address is invalid, or it's not the one used to post the original question. Both of these things would cause the list server to reject it. Anders

Yes, that's possible for a few reasons (usually it's because hypermail chokes on the mail for some reason). The message is still available through listname-get.msgnum@suse.com though. Re-syncing the maildirs with the html archives isn't really practical for the large lists though; the last time I rsynced the archives on suse-linux it took almost four days.

Sure, if somebody isn't subscribed or has messed up the sender from that's their problem. With SLE you don't even need the list name in the to: or cc: to have suse-linux-e-@suse.com in it for the posting to be accepted, only the envelope address needs to be correct (although you can use suse-linux-e@suse.de). -- -ckm
