I made a mistake in configuring the spam filter of elinks-dev, and it seems all messages sent here after August 11, 2009 have been lost. I am sorry. There was no such problem with the elinks-users list. The Mailman software in the mailing-list server uses lists of regular expressions for detecting spam messages. I had added some comments and blank lines in the list used for discarding spam, to document the history and rationale of some of those regexps. Unfortunately, it seems Mailman 2.1.9 treated those blank lines as match-all regexps. Before the change, I had checked from the source code that it supported comments, but I didn't realize it didn't support blank lines. http://mailman.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/mailman/tags/Release_2_1_9/Mailman/Handlers/SpamDetect.py?view=markup http://bazaar.launchpad.net/%7Emailman-coders/mailman/2.1/revision/960 _______________________________________________ elinks-dev mailing list [email protected] http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/elinks-dev
