Are 2000+ ruby-talk-google members really just not important? I’ve sent  
two personal requests with no reply. Matz, please help me get this issue  
resolved!

I need to know if the ruby-talk list is even getting posts via the  
Google Group mirror?

If yes, is there a spam filter that’s mistaking filtering them all out?

If you don’t see your messages in

[http://blade.nagaokaut.ac.jp/ruby/ruby-talk/index.shtml](http://blade.nagaokaut.ac.jp/ruby/ruby-talk/index.shtml)

the list haven’t received the message.

We (the list side) don’t set up any filter from the gateway. The  
gateway should set up special header to post to the list. It’s the  
responsibility of the gateway.

I’m one of them. And the vanishing messages are really  
annoying…

In a galaxy far, far away, or closer, is a black hole eating  
all my messages.

Thanks.

Oh, forgot to thank you…

Thanks for getting back to me on this. I contacted Google with  
evidence in hand the problem lied with them.

Looks like things may be fixed now.

Double thanks,
