Well, I tried to subscribe to the JRuby mailing list, in the following way: I went to http://xircles.codehaus.org/projects/jruby/lists and clicked on "Subscribe" of user@jruby.codehaus.org and entered my email address. I received then an email saying: ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ +++++++++++++++++++ You, or someone pretending to be you has attempted to manage mail subscriptions for the email address: ronald.fischer@venyon.com If this is your desired goal, you're almost there. All you need to do now is to follow the link below: URL:" ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ +++++++++++++++++++ So I went to this email address. To my surprise, the browser did NOT say on this address that I now were sucessfully subscribed to this list; instead, the browser said: "Enter a list address below to quickly subscribe to it using ronald.fischer@venyon.com The address should be in the form of listname@project.codehaus.org" So I entered again the list name, user@jruby.codehaus.org, into the entry field labelled "List address" and clicked on "Subscribe". After this, I received the following error message: "Unable to find 'user@jruby.codehause.org' list" What did I do wrong here? Ronald -- Ronald Fischer Phone: +49-89-452133-162
