Re: [oniro-dev] Testing mail delivery (take two)

Hello,

There were a few messages that required moderation. I passed them through.

The apparent issue for those mails to not go through is that the default 
number for this field:

"Ceiling on acceptable number of recipients for a posting.
(Details for max_num_recipients)"

is 10 which, in the case of some mails, like Eddie related mails, is 
insufficient. This was already reported by Stefan.

I increased it to 30 in oniro-wg mailing list. I am trying to figure out the 
best way to proceed in the case of oniro-dev since I am not admin there, just 
moderator. Is it any of you?

In any case, let me remind everyone that increasing this field has its risks. 
Spammers love mailing lists with a high number in such configuration. Another 
point is that, adding in CC people that is not subscribed might have potential 
issues when discussing through threads in the mailing list. The ideal 
behaviour is to reduce such number to the minimum.

In EDDIE case, keeping the current limit (10)  means extra work and other 
small issues so I think it is worth taking the risk. 

I hope this is the source of your issues Zyga.

Best Regards
