Hi,
I've been monitoring the pending requests list for the engine-patches mailing list
for a while now,
from what i could see, no one send mails to this list except automated mails initiated at
gerrit (which is pretty much expected).
the rest is spam..
this makes a requirement for people using gerrit (code contributors and reviewers) to
subscribe to the list,
and get all the mails on all gerrit activity.
some people do not want to subscribe, and mails on their activity needs manual
processing.
maybe there is a way to have automated job to run daily/weekly to add all gerrit users to
the accept list for this list?
then i would change the list to automatically reject all mail from non-subscribers and
users that are not in the accept list.
what do you think?
any other suggestion?
they don't have to be subscribed, though we do need to add them as
approved sender once we see this.
same for engine-commits, though less than patches on number of folks
actually making the commit.
I'm fine with removing engine-patches and keeping engine-commits only
