Folks,
The migration of lists.osgeo.org (aka the Mailman mailing lists) to a new
home will start shortly. Anticipate problems with the mailing lists for
several hours, and avoid using them if you mind mail being lost.
Best regards,

Did it work to migrate the lists without rebuilding the archives?
I hope yes...

Markus,
Yes, and no. That aspect seemed ok, but ultimately the migration failed
because mail did not flow for reasons I do not understand. I pointed things
back at osgeo1 and went to bed in frustration.
I will attempt it again in a week or two; hopefully with the assistance of
someone competent.
Best regards,

Rats, sorry to hear it Frank. Are we dealing with "MX" records in DNS
maybe? I know only enough to be dangerous on that front

Tyler,
It is possible it relates to that, but it seems to me from
in the pairnic interface that the MX record for lists.osgeo.org
points to whereever the lists.osgeo.org DNS entry points.
But this is also an area I don't know much about.
It *seemed* like messages were getting to the lists VM but
somehow were not being delivered on. However, if I emailed
a list from a local account on the VM it did seem to work. But
I managed to get quite confused about what had and had not
worked, so I don't really trust my recollection of the details.
I will note there are lots in /var/log/mailman that might help
people work out something about what happened.
Best regards,
