Description rob.til.freedman 2010-03-27 19:47:19 UTC
I'm trying to unsubscribe from the tracker mailing list - to no avail!

http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/tracker-list

I don't have a password anymore and 'remind' doesn't work.

Suggestions to contact mail manager also failed:

Delivery to the following recipient failed permanently:

    mailman@mail.gnome.org

Technical details of permanent failure:
Google tried to deliver your message, but it was rejected by the recipient domain. We recommend contacting the other email provider for further information about the cause of this error.

We (I) prefer Bugzilla, but standard Mailman doesn't allow you to say that. That is why when bouncing I added the error message pointing to Bugzilla.
Comment 2 rob.til.freedman 2010-03-28 03:28:54 UTC
The tracker-list admin suggested a mail to 
admin@gnome.org which doesn't exist.

On the main gnome site I've found a reference to mailman@gnome.org
- which also doesn't exists :(
and your comment is also somewhat cryptic to me!

I would be glad if you could point me to someone able to cancel my subscription!
Comment 3 Olav Vitters 2010-03-28 10:21:19 UTC
The subject of this bug is that mailman@ does not exist. This is on purpose, you need to file bugs. Meaning: If you want something done, file a specific bug.

That someone advises you incorrectly is not my problem.

Now, you also talk about unsubsription problems. You've managed to file a bug about mailman@, so if there still is some problem, file one about that.
Comment 4 rob.til.freedman 2010-03-28 15:58:36 UTC
Wow, publishing a non-existing mail address, intentionally - really a stroke of genius!
Comment 5 Olav Vitters 2010-03-28 19:02:53 UTC
Wow, your comment is a bit stupid. This as publishment is NOT intentional (I hide it whereever I can), moreover I already mentioned this in comment 1.


Assume you didn't expect a nice reply after reading yours. I really do not see the point of your comment.
Comment 6 rob.til.freedman 2010-03-28 19:39:45 UTC
I wouldn't call it 'hiding'
