I've been missing a lot of messages in my Gmail the past few days that I see posted on ruby-forum. I notified [ruby-talk-admin@ruby-lang.org](mailto:ruby-talk-admin@ruby-lang.org) yesterday, but haven't heard back. Is anyone else having this problem? Is it Gmail, or ruby-talk, or the relay, or something else? Is there someone else I should ask about getting it fixed? ---

YUP! I'm seeing a drastic reduction in posts, but honestly, I've kind of enjoyed it. 馃槈 > **路路路** > > On Mar 1, 2012, at 14:16 , Eric Christopherson wrote: > > > I've been missing a lot of messages in my Gmail the past few days that > > I see posted on ruby-forum.

I have seen quite a few threads where at least the initial posting was missing (easily visible because the subject in the overview starts with "Re:"). I didn't bother to check in more detail yet but there are quite of few of these "headless" threads.

Hi, Eric. Thank you for letting me know. And sorry for the mess, my "Re:" posts are ugly. 馃槩 This problem was explained by eban's diary.(written in Japanese)     [Just another Ruby porter, 2012-3-a](http://jarp.does.notwork.org/diary/201203a.html#201203012) But, I can't translate with accuracy. In my understanding below. 1. Ruby-Talk has been strict, because to be against spam of recent.     [Who Administrates this list and how can the community help save this list from the noise - Ruby - Ruby-Forum](http://www.ruby-forum.com/topic/3629754)     [Just another Ruby porter, 2012-2-b](http://jarp.does.notwork.org/diary/201202b.html#201202121) 2. The cause is a gap of registered email addresses, between ruby-talk and ruby-forum. 3. Now, we are hoping solution by the ruby-forum side. > **路路路** > > 2012/3/2 Eric Christopherson \: > > > I've been missing a lot of messages in my Gmail the past few days that > > I see posted on ruby-forum.

Is any progress being made? Does anyone have an idea of how long it will take before the two mediums reflect each other's contents (if ever)? > **路路路** > > > 2012/3/2 Eric Christopherson \: > > > > > I've been missing a lot of messages in my Gmail the past few days that > > > I see posted on ruby-forum.

I haven't seen anything suggesting that someone has contacted the maintainer of ruby-forum... Maybe they have but most of the blame here seems to be pointed towards the ruby-talk@ admins. The problem is on the forum side and there is little that the ruby-talk@ admins can do about it. What ruby-forum will probably have to do is either: 1) mail to the mailing list as a register ruby-forum user or 2) start registering ruby-forum users before the mail gets sent to ruby-talk@ as the user. You can sign up for the list and turn off mail delivery so this wouldn't cause annoying duplicates to the poster. > **路路路** > > On Mar 7, 2012, at 14:55 , Eric Christopherson wrote: > > > Is any progress being made?
