Dear fsf-discuss members,
I recently had to add myself to the list of admins of this mailing list to process the "pending confirmation" requests because there were more than 2000 of them and they were causing gateway timeouts on the list info page. This was caused due to a huge number of spam sign-ups (about 3 per day) since November 2020. I've cleared them as described in https://wiki.fsci.org.in/index.php/Mailing_list#Remove_spam_confirmation_req...
The source of this spam is unknown and it continues.
If anyone has any suggestion on how to deal with this, it would be welcome.
Meanwhile, as admin, I have been receiving notifications about uncaught bounces from mailman with permanent failures on about 6 yahoo.com emails.
Bounce processing is supported only on mailman 3.3.1 and above.
I am going to remove these bouncing emails from the list next week unless someone objects.
Akshay
