Dave, that's a good question, which I thought of before writing my initial mail. The simple answer is: "I don't know for sure". Actually is there a way=
for me to list the members of a specific list? =20 Only for admins, I'm afraid.
That is true for using the CLI tools, but I think all the lists use the default Mailman setting for "private_roster" of "List members", meaning if you are a member of the list you can see the roster. It then shows you the list users in alphabetical groupings. For those with sudo access to lists.ovirt.org, you can run: /usr/lib/mailman/bin/list_members $LISTNAME
I know there are many users in subscribed to relevant lists (for vdsm,=
infra, etc), but removing one or more from a thread can actually become an insult. So as a habit I really prefer to avoid it.
I really hope that 10 recipients along with mailman removing redundanc= y will do the trick. =20 Actually, Karsten already upped the limit to 20, so the question is moo= t.
Yeah, I don't disagree with you that 10 should be reasonable, but we've got a cross-list situation where this is going to keep happening, I think. It's good we've segmented development discussions properly, but it means cross-posting happens, the recipient list grows, and I'm not going to get in a minor skirmish with everyone to get them to trim the recipient fields. :)
Ooh, I didn't know Mailman would do that, that's a great idea. (I always like to remove all the extra recipients, but sometimes you don't know=
who is on the list or not.) =20 This is a per-user setting - "Avoid duplicate emails". I imagine that the option was set to false by default (I always set it to true). This has a double effect - if someone sends an email to the mailing list wit= h you CCed, you only get the email once, and your address is removed from=
the CC list.
I haven't made tweaking that setting part of the standard settings for anything, but maybe it should be. http://wiki.ovirt.org/wiki/Creating_and_configuring_mailing_lists
It's not possible for us to change the option for everyone without hacking the database, but anyone who would like to have this option on can change it themselves on the listinfo page (and if you check "Change=
globally", it will be set for all lists on the server at the same time)= =2E
I'd be OK with us hacking the database; IIRC it's not that big a deal, if it really helps. I reckon we should ask people. We can also change our standard so new users get the new standard.
