Good to know, thanks sebb, and apologies to Alex who called it a couple of days ago! I'm not sure I understand the practical difference between "confirming an allow" and "subscribing the e-mail to the allow list" as they seem to have the same effect, i.e. why would the moderate e-mail need the hashed-up string, and not just use dev-allow-subscribe-user=example.com@...? Back to John's original question then, > Does anyone know the mail command to send out to allow marvin emails > to get to a list without moderation? from what I just learnt, it would be for the moderator to send mail to dev-allow-subscribe-no-reply=apache.org@tamaya.i.a.o Tim --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: general-unsubscr...@incubator.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: general-h...@incubator.apache.org
