It appears that FreeBSD's Majordomo may be in worse shape than I feared when I sent in my question about subscribing lists to FreeBSD lists, yesterday. Today, I tried to subscribe myself to two more lists, freebsd-announce, and freebsd-mobile. Since I was only trying to subscribe this address, I used the bare subscribe command. I got back a message for each from Majordomo, telling me that I should expect another message containing the subscription authorization magic string to send back -- but I didn't get the actual messages containing the magic strings. Since both kinds of message should have been sent to exactly the same e-mail address and one kind got through but the other didn't, I conclude that the Majordomo subscription mechanism for at least these two lists is broken. Am I right? If so, what's happening to fix Majordomo (and when should I try again)? If not, where did I go wrong?
