So i requested help for my four packages in the Distribution. RFH : jove My first package.

In my ongoing attempt to investigate and fix problems of our mailinglist-server, i found that we only had a working bounce-detection for lists starting debian-* minus debian-private and the three digest-lists. So i rewrote some parts of the bounce detection: We now hav https://cord.de/en/blog/debian-lists-vs-mail2news-gateways/ Mon, 14 Jan 2008 10:09:06 +0100 https://cord.de/en/blog/debian-lists-vs-mail2news-gateways/ While analysing the pole setters in our internal bouncers-Hitlist i found that some of them run a mail2news-Gateway. The problem is: our Mailinglists leave Mail-Headers mostly untouched, and so headers like X-Trace or X-Complaints-To are passed through without modifications. If a mail containing tho https://cord.de/en/blog/spamwaves-on-lists-or-oops-i-did-it-again/ Tue, 08 Jan 2008 14:43:08 +0100 https://cord.de/en/blog/spamwaves-on-lists-or-oops-i-did-it-again/ Just a quick note: while wading through the list-archives, drop-boxes and list-configuration to find false positives and possiblities to optimise our mailinglists spam level i accidently removed the inclusion of our spamfilters from most lists. I appologise for this.

That message didn't contain a Precedence-Header so i add https://cord.de/en/blog/mutt-autoviewing-text-html/ Sat, 03 Nov 2007 14:17:19 +0100 https://cord.de/en/blog/mutt-autoviewing-text-html/ it sometimes funny, i'm working with mutt since about 10 years, (the 5 years before i was using elm) and just found out how i can view pure text/html-Mails without fiddeling with piping and things. set implicit_autoview in .muttrc does the trick. but now mutt also prefers the text/html-part of multi https://cord.de/en/blog/analysis-of-subscribed-domains-on-debian-listserver/ Fri, 14 Sep 2007 16:21:40 +0200 https://cord.de/en/blog/analysis-of-subscribed-domains-on-debian-listserver/ From time to time we have the problem that a mail posted to a list triggers an autoresponse (vacation, bounce, tdma) from an unexpected source. Sometimes it isn't possible to identify the subscriber who is causing this. One example for this was "petsupermarket".
