I have a vague feeling that it may be because I either subscribed with my "raw" email address of simon@nosher.demon.co.uk way back when, or that ALUG's mailman is seeing this is a different address from the simon@nosher.net I actually use as my from/reply-to. I did have a quick scan of the headers, but as both addresses legitimately appear as part of the chain it's hard to say.
Would I be best just to try re-subscribing, or I have I missed some obvious thing I'm meant to do...?
Neither of those email addresses are subscribed to the Alug mailing list, there is another address @nosher.net that is on the list.
The alug list is configured to only allow people to post from email addresses that are subscribed to the list this is to prevent spam.
If you want to post from an address that you do not want to receive list email then you subscribe from that email address and then set it in the web interface to "no mail" this then allows you to post from it without moderation.
As your email addresses aren't subscribed then all your posts get moderated which takes time as it happens when someone gets around to it.
Also, please create new threads instead of replying to an old one if the post is about a different or new subject!
Thanks Adam
