Anyone else been finding that they were unsubscribed?

Sorry you had this problem. A few clairications:

We never take any action personally (myself or Russell) to unsubscribe users
without attempting to discuss first with them. In all the five years of the
existence of the lists, to the best of my recollection, I have never
unsubscribed anyone, and only "disabled" one or two users (and none were in
the last few months). Both did not respond to email messages and were
bombarding me (and probably the list) with incorrectly bounced emails.

What happens much more often is that Mailman (the program used by Source
Forge) has a limit of bounces or retries that becomes exceeded for some user.
I forget what Mailman does, but I think it also disables the user's account,
though it is possible it unsubscribes the user.

Considering the complexity of keeping a mailing list running, these actions
seem at least on the surface reasonable.

Best regards,

Kern

Same anti-spam software REJECTS email it considers spam. Sourceforge
will cut you off the list if this happens a few times. Try to whitelist
the sourceforge servers.

Per.
