I would really like to still be able to use 1 tool, i.e. currently the mail
client, to read the mails for either devs or users. Sure, answering to
users should be done on discourse, but I would not like to have to juggle
yet another service.
I understand that what you describe seems like a bug. Did we try to report
it to discourse? On a quick google I'm unable to find such a behavior
described. We could try reporting it otherwise.
P.S.: I have re-enabled the "Enable mailing list mode" option to the
discourse mailman user. Will watch it to see when/if it gets disabled again.
Thanks,
Eduard

user(a)xwiki.org as its email so that we can still archive discussions done
with discourse on markmail, nabble, etc.

Where did you see that? At least that’s not my proposal. My proposal is

I haven’t made it readonly yet so I don’t know if it’s normal or not.
FTR just noticed 2 users have contacted me telling me they cannot post to
the user list anymore. So someone must have changed something on the user
list, but it’s not me :)

reply, you'd follow the reply link in the mail an open the
discourse browser window.
So, only discourse could be able to publish to the list, all other list
users would get rejected.
The proposal was:
* Make the list readonly except for a given discourse user who’d have
However:
* I have configured a user having user(a)xwiki.org as its email and in
“mailing list
mode” but after it sends its first mail, the “mailing list
mode” is automatically disabled and I don’t know why.
Conclusion so far:
* We need to make the list readonly. I’ll do this next week when I find
some
time.
* I don’t know how to fix the issue listed above
* In any case I don’t think it’s that important that we don’t archive
discourse
discussions on markmail so I’m fine with dropping this part.
