Just on that point, policies vary:
1) Block unsubscribed users
2) Allow unsubscribed users
3) Hold unsubscribed users for moderation
I think the Fedora list currently has (2). The Evolution list currently
has (3), but clearly this will vary according to need and moderator
load.
Hi Patrick,
A recent experience makes me think it's (3). I'd replied to a post
using an unsubscribed email address and got notified at that address the
the post was awaiting moderation. That was the last I heard and the
post never showed up on the list.
The content was obviously related to the thread but for whatever reason
wasn't passed through.
I was happy that was the action (not?) taken because I didn't want that
email address out in the wild, i.e. on a public mailing list, so this is
a big shoutout and thank you to the moderators.
