I think my subscription request for standards@ is in some moderation queue. could someone please have a look? Thanks :)
-
MattJ
flow, I don't think there is a moderation queue for standards@ subscriptions. I know this is cliché, but... have you checked your spam folder?
-
MattJ
flow, if there's nothing there, can you share (here or privately) the email address you're trying to use?
-
flow
MattJ, email address is the same as my jid
-
flow
and yes, I've checked my spam folder :)
-
flow
I assume it requires some moderator intervention because when I subscribe with my JID the mailman message does not say that it send a confirmation mail but that some other action is required
-
MattJ
It always says that
-
MattJ
Weird. I don't see that address subscribed, and I don't see anything in the queue.
-
MattJ
Did you get any emails warning you of bounces?
-
flow
MattJ, I did
-
flow
after all, that is why I was unsubscribed. appearantly gmail become more restrictive in the past months
-
MattJ
Can you try again now at https://mail.jabber.org/mailman/listinfo/standards ? I'll check logs

MattJ, "Your subscription request has been received, and will soon be acted upon. Depending on the configuration of this mailing list, your subscription request may have to be first confirmed by you via email, or approved by the list moderator. If confirmation is required, you will soon get a confirmation email which contains further instructions."
-
MattJ
flow, the mail server says your mail server received and acknowledged the confirmation email
-
MattJ
Specifically: "250 2.0.0 Ok: queued as CA31D4A001F"
-
flow
MattJ, meh, I guess it hangs in my mailservers outgoing queue to gmail. thanks!

If you're fronting gmail behind your own SMTP server, I have found in the last couple of weeks that that is causing me issues with gmail rejecting a bunch of stuff problematically, FWIW, flow. To the extent I'm considering switching to either POP3 or just paying gmail.
-
flow
Kev, similar here. it seems gmail became more aggressive in the last months, I was dropped from a few mailing lists over the past weeks
-
flow
where "few" == 2-3

Not using a gmail.com address.

I see.

I've had the same mail address for somewhere over 20 years, predating gmail existing, I don't much want to either switch to using a gmail address or rely on a particular third-party provider continuing to run or lose my address. I know, I know, Google has a strong track record of never cancelling services, but you never know.

Self-host all the things!

Kev
If only I could work out a decent setup to replace gmail :)
-
Maranda
mdosch: anyways compliance, a bussness may use their own appliance as mail gateway for incoming/outgoing traffic to do all the sort of filtering
-
Zash
Kev, of course, that is not possible. Do it anyway!

flow: if you "forward" mail to Gmail from your box that means you forward the spam too, so you look like a spammer. This is how many boxes get in trouble
-
flow
singpolyma, I know. I've been doing this since I stopped hosting my on fully-featured mail service, and gmail only recently started to get more restrictive
-
moparisthebest
Ha, I have the opposite setup, my old Gmail forwards to my self hosted server
-
moparisthebest
Probably should turn that off at some point, no legitimate mail has went there for years...
-
MattJ
You're harming Google's sender reputation score with that setup
-
singpolyma
My Gmail account is so old I have that set up *and* can send used the Gmail interface "from" my custom domain but going via Google SMTP servers
-
singpolyma
Useful every now and then when there is a delivery issue
-
MattJ
Is that no longer a feature?
-
singpolyma
MattJ: hasn't been for years. If you want to send via a custom domain you have to SMTP auth to another server from Gmail web interface
-
singpolyma
But grandfathered accounts are still allowed
-
pep.
"MattJ> You're harming Google's sender reputation score with that setup" they probably care very little :P
-
moparisthebest
You mean Google's reputation on my server? I don't think rspamd tracks that

Has there been much discussion in the past of using disco info to advertise support for codecs / image formats?
