Problems with wine-patches

[Paul Vriens]

Hi,

I'm not able to send (what I think is normal) email to wine-patches
anymore. The Test mail worked.

Any ideas?

Cheers,

Paul.

I have the same problem when I send patches that are too big. They never
appear in wine-patches.

I expect they're being held in the moderation queue, normally they'll be
released shortly when that happens but you can always compress the patch
or post a URL to it if it's really too big. Better way is to make the
patches smaller of course ...

Yeah,

but this patch was smaller than the ones I've send before. I've gzipped
it now and it's accepted! Weird!

Well, when I came in this morning for moderation, the wine-patches queue 
was empty. But it was the only one; rather unusual. So either someone 
else cleared out only the wine-patches queue, or wine-patches might 
indeed be broken.

Is it just a problem of upping the default 40K size?  afair,
that's the mailman default.  Perhaps we should just raise it.

My patch was a mere 3815 bytes (gzipped 1055), so that can't be it.

This was my test message : 
http://www.winehq.org/hypermail/wine-patches/2005/02/0054.html
The patch I was trying to send was status-5.diff about 20K if I remember 
correct..
I bounced for two day's before it cleared up.

Juan Lang sent a bounce test : 
http://www.winehq.org/hypermail/wine-patches/2005/01/0555.html

So your not alone...........  :-)

The wine-patches list is 80KB, but the others are 40. The main reason I 
have left them that size is that occasionally someone's computer gets 
infected and starts spamming the list with legitimate from addresses. 
The size limit occasionally helps block them. I don't think the limit is 
causing problems; most people on the list understand how it works. 
Though I have no idea what happened to Paul's posts.

I hade the same problem about a week to ten days ago.
You will see where I also sent a test to wine-patches.

Then the problem went just away.....
