what lists are in apps.ietf.org?



First let me apologize that email to apps.ietf.org stopped working. It certainly was not planned that way. Worse, there was an early ticket from Dave Crocker pointing out there was an issue but even this got overlooked in the stream of issues that cried out for attention.

Unfortunately, since apps.ietf.org is a delegated domain, the default action for tickets of this type was to defer to those third parties. This actually worked until we looked closer at what was going on with email and realized that the DNS configuration was part of the problem. apps.ietf.org was unique in this respect compared to all the other "third party domains". Sorry, but that contributed to the oversight. I could explain all this in way too much detail but, frankly, it would sound like an excuse and it's really not important right now.

The problem now is that there is no information as to what mailing lists are in the apps.ietf.org domain. I am aware of the following three:

   discuss
   urn-nid
   w3c-policy

The discuss list now works and the other two will work soon (today). There is a mapping rule that has to be added to the email system to make things work the way you would expect given the configuration of apps.ietf.org.

If you own a list in the apps.ietf.org domain would you please self-declare by sending a message to me and I'll make sure the mapping gets entered and your list starts working again.

Thanks,

Jim
