Looks like we take up Apereo lists then...

Hi Julian

I'm sorry to hear that delays to e-mails are still causing a problem for the list.

The only cause I can think of is the outsourced iCritical scanning service, as inbound messages can be routed through a number of scanning nodes, each of which may have mail queues of different sizes and hence introduce varying delays to different messages. It's not possible to route the inbound xerte-dev list messages separately to messages for all the other lists without changing the mail routing for the Mailman mailing lists server as a whole. I'm reluctant do that for two reasons: firstly, it would reduce the resilience of the mail routing and secondly, I have had no reports of this being a problem for any other of our lists.

The only alternative I can suggest is that you consider relocating the list to an external mailing lists service: JISCmail would seem to be an obvious choice, due to the use of Xerte by the UK academic community: see JISCMail<http://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/groups/startagroup/grouprequestform.html>

regards
David

Hi David,

We have never really fully resolved the issues with the xerte-dev (and I expect the xerte list) that I have reported to you several times now: I still get complaints that messages are not showing up at all, or that the order of the postings becomes confused making it very difficult to follow the thread of a discussion.

There are some clues that indicate something is filtering out, or holding back messages: usually plain text messages get through OK; often the messages that get held up contain links or code examples; this morning it appears a particular domain cannot send mails to the list at all.

Do you have any idea what might be impacting this, and whether this is something that can be resolved?

Julian

Julian,

I sent a reply at 13:18 (about 20 minutes ago), so far I haven't seen it.

Let's check whether it has to do with the e-mail domain.
