Some of these are messages are sent hour(s) later. It appears that the Gmane Autoauthorizer notices that report "[t]he mailing list software used for the list in question is mailman" are giving bad instructions as Mlmmj and mailman do not seem to be compatible for such things, if I understand right --and the FreeBSD lists are Mlmmj based these days. I'm also not sure what the "+" is about in the "mlmmj+". It might be an error to be corrected. I've learned that listing the newsgroup and your Email address for the send did not lead to the message showing up via https://lists.freebsd.org/archives/freebsd-test/ . -- === Mark Millard marklmi at yahoo.comhome | help
