Re: [Savannah-users] GNU ccd2cue: Ghost mailing lists

[Karl Berry]

Hi Bruno,

    https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/ccd2cue-bug
    https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/ccd2cue-support

It's normal/desirable for lists not to be completely deleted.  Usually,
the lists have archives and/or membership lists and we wouldn't want to
lose those.  In your case, I see they don't, so they could be deleted,
but in general ...

What should happen is that the mailman "advertised" value should be set
to "no" on https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/admin/ccd2cue-bug/privacy
(resp. -support).  I thought that happened automatically by the Savannah
list disablement at one time, but apparently not, or else it's broken.

If someone would like to look into that, it would be great.  I won't be
able to get to it for a while.  Meanwhile, I did it by hand for your two
lists.

What the savannah disabling does do is make it impossible for the lists
to receive mail, e.g., the address address@hidden now bounces.
(Savannah people/archives: this is implemented by renaming the file
named "nongnu.org" in lists:/var/lib/mailman/lists/ccd2cue-bug/domains
to something else.  Custom setup as usual.)

Thanks,
karl
