From p.j.a.cock at googlemail.com Mon Nov 13 10:18:05 2017 From: p.j.a.cock at googlemail.com (Peter Cock) Date: Mon, 13 Nov 2017 10:18:05 +0000 Subject: [Biopython] Delays posting to the mailing list In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: Dear Biopythoneers, I'm not sure if my email below from last week will arrive or not (at the time of writing, it is not on the archives). There has been progress on the OBF mailing lists (lots of spam mails from one domain have been blocked) and some of your real messages have been delivered, but I don't think we're quite back to normal yet. Further details here: https://news.open-bio.org/2017/11/12/mailing-list-outage-and-public-board-meeting-update/ Thank you for your patience, Peter On Tue, Nov 7, 2017 at 2:18 PM, Peter Cock wrote: > Dear Biopythoneers, > > You probably won't get this email for some time (days?), but we > are aware of issues with the mailman server and delays to real > messages being sent out and appearing on the archives. > > We are investigating.

Also, our mailman server is still dealing with a backlog of spam targeting our mailing list owner addresses. If any of you have experience with mailman and would like to volunteer, please do get in touch - the OBF board can be reached via board at open-bio.org (or in case of mailing list problems, as now, please include obf-board at googlegroups.com as a fall back). Thanks, Peter (Also on the board of the OBF as treasurer) On Mon, Nov 13, 2017 at 10:18 AM, Peter Cock wrote: > Dear Biopythoneers, > > I'm not sure if my email below from last week will arrive or not > (at the time of writing, it is not on the archives). > > There has been progress on the OBF mailing lists (lots of spam > mails from one domain have been blocked) and some of your > real messages have been delivered, but I don't think we're quite > back to normal yet.
