I am looking for a specific JRuby mailing list. (1) On the web, I found the list removed\_email\_address@domain.invalid , but I have never managed to subscribe to this list; so in case the list admin of this list happens to read this message, I would be glad if s/he could get back to me by email. (2) If someone knows any other JRuby specific mailing list, please let me know. Ronald ---

Well, I’m subscribed to that mailing list (removed\_email\_address@domain.invalid). What _exactly_ do you mean that you have “never managed to subscribe to this list”? Do you not know how to subscribe to it, or is it rejecting your subscription request, or what? ---

Well, I tried to subscribe to the JRuby mailing list, in the following way: I went to [http://xircles.codehaus.org/projects/jruby/lists](http://xircles.codehaus.org/projects/jruby/lists) and clicked on “Subscribe” of removed\_email\_address@domain.invalid and entered my email address. I received then an email saying: ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ +++++++++++++++++++ You, or someone pretending to be you has attempted to manage mail subscriptions for the email address: removed\_email\_address@domain.invalid If this is your desired goal, you’re almost there. All you need to do now is to follow the link below: URL:\<[http://xircles.codehaus.org/manage\_email/manage/1c565f5a991fbdffcc5](http://xircles.codehaus.org/manage_email/manage/1c565f5a991fbdffcc5) cb71f4522bca6\>" ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ +++++++++++++++++++ So I went to this email address. To my surprise, the browser did NOT say on this address that I now were sucessfully subscribed to this list; instead, the browser said: “Enter a list address below to quickly subscribe to it using removed\_email\_address@domain.invalid The address should be in the form of removed\_email\_address@domain.invalid” So I entered again the list name, removed\_email\_address@domain.invalid, into the entry field labelled “List address” and clicked on “Subscribe”. After this, I received the following error message: “Unable to find ‘removed\_email\_address@domain.invalid’ list” What did I do wrong here? Ronald ---

Thank you for pointing this out. I believed to have read on the codeaus pages (can’t recall exactly where), that the confirmation email need to be sent within 24 hours, so I thought that my possibility to confirm had been expired anyway. I was surprised that you were able to complete the confirmation for me - so I guess I am now subscribed (although I haven’t got so far an email confirming so)… Ronald ---
