[Mageia-sysadm] Packages-commits sending too many emails, cannot unsubscribe

Mon Jan 14 03:24:51 CET 2013

Hi!
+
+It seems gmail has started throttling my incoming email and sending back
+bounces due to too many incoming emails.
+
+I figured this must be due to the huge amount of markreleases on
+packages-commits lately due to the mass rebuild, each of the
+markreleases generating 4 emails.
+
+So I tried to unsubscribe temporarily and possibly resubscribe with a
+different email address. Unfortunately, https://ml.mageia.org/l/lists
+said that I'm not subscribed on packages-commits@ (among others) with my
+identity account.
+
+So I went directly to the list page, and tried to unsubscribe
+"anssi.hannula at iki.fi", and it said that no such subscriber exists.
+After that I tried to unsubscribe "anssi at mageia.org", but got HTTP 500
+Internal Server Error, and it seems I can no longer access even
+"https://ml.mageia.org/l/lists", I just get HTTP 500 every time.
+
+According to the email headers it is indeed "anssi.hannula at iki.fi" that
+is subscribed to the list, though.
+
+I also tried sending the unsubscribe email command, but it seemingly had
+no effect.
+
+Can someone with admin access please unsubscribe me from
+packages-commits@, or alternatively add a filter for the markrelease
+messages?
