For lists that are active, the split is confusing — when should something be on the packaging list rather than devel? What happens when something is related to both Cloud and Server, or Workstation and KDE? One can post to both lists, but if someone replies and isn’t subscribed to both, the conversation gets split.
Do Fedora mailing lists reject mail from non-members, and redirect follow-ups?
Many lists *hold* mail from non-members, because mailing lists get tons of spam. So the mail won't get through until an admin approves it. That might happen right away...or it might happen in two days, when the mail is no longer relevant. We can't really just let all mails from non- members through because...spam.
Right. I don't think we have many (or possibly any) lists that still hold email from non-members. The flood of spam is just too high for that for the last N years. So, almost all our lists are set to reject non member posts. :(
