First I've heard of this. I'll look into it. The system for linking the mailing list to the forum was not written internally. It was a plugin for the forum package.

Are only some threads being dropped? I suppose it is possible in that case that our spam filtering might be blocking some posts (total wild guess).

Replies from the mailing list are not showing up on the forum in some cases. A user mentioned it in this thread: http://forum.winehq.org/viewtopic.php?t=10782.

I checked the mailing list archives, and there are other threads that have replies from mailing list users that never appeared on the forum.

I have written a PM about this problem to jnewman (the site admin of forum.winehq.org) long time ago. I currently only have enough free time to delete spam in the forum so I didn't check if this issue was fixed since then. I'm really surprised to find out that this problem is not fixed for such a long time. Is it really hard to fix or it was forgotten?

I guess you do not check your PMs very often: after I wrote message to wine-devel I looked into my history of sent PMs in the forum and PM I sent to you at Dec 07, 2010 was still in "Outbox" (in phpBB it means it was successfully sent but was not yet opened by the recipient, completely different thing than in e-mail clients). Now it finally was opened by you. If I checked status of the PM sooner I would notice that you do not read private messages in the forum and tried to use e-mail to contact you but I didn't thought of this because even if you do not login to forum often you should have received e-mail notification about new PM.

It seems the queue was corrupt. I've worked to clean it out and new messages should be routing through again.

OK, thank you very much for fixing this problem. In case it happens again, I will use e-mail to contact you.
