I seem to have a natural knack for hitting the ruts around here, which is exciting. I've tried to subscribe to the list using both yahoo and gmail email accounts and the webform always reports "The email address you entered does not appear to be valid." I would like to use either yahoo or gmail because I am very interested in keeping spam down on my main email accounts (see Jan 7 2006 thread 'E-mail harvesting on PG lists?'). I've been posting via a newsreader but it seems that there is some strange pattern with messages not making it on the the list using that pipe...all of my posts show on the google archive of this list but a good number (25%?) seem to be missing from the mailing list archives that are found on the postgres site. Example, it seems that both of my responses to Scott Marlowe never made it to the list, but are somehow listed in google, and on the newsgroup. Scott was PO'd that I didn't respond to his first post, that got me to check into why he didn't. I posted about this issue, the failure of the website subscription form to accept (at least) an @yahoo.com email acct, and no one replied (though that was one of the posts that didnt' seem to make it onto the mailing list, but is on google & newsgroup). Can someone tell me what the secret is, or check the webform at postgresql.org and make sure it's in order?
