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 :)
Thanks

Guys, I thought we were going to make the users list read-only, not disable
it completely. This is now what was discussed, AFAIK.
Where did you see that? At least that’s not my proposal. My proposal is to make it read
only.
Right now, I haven't received a mail on the
users list since 12th of June.
I haven’t made it readonly yet so I don’t know if it’s normal or not. AFAIR, a proposed flow was to receive mails of
the discussions and, if you
want to 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 user(a)xwiki.org as
its email so that we can still archive discussions done with discourse on markmail,
nabble, etc.
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.

Thanks,
