* [COFF] Oops, re hello to COFF

All, if you got a strange 'hello' message on the COFF mailing list,
my apologies. I have mailman3 set up on the new "minnie" machine,
and I am going to also set up a mailman2 instance.

The idea is that mailman3 will do the normal list processing and have
its own archive using the Hyperkitty software. But mailman2 will be
subscribed to the list, so mail can be also archived using the old
pipermail software. That way, I can import the existing TUHS and COFF
mailing list archives and augment them, rather than lose them entirely.

I thought I'd deleted all the COFF subscribers on the new "minnie"
system, but I can see in the logs that some test e-mail might have
escaped.

Cheers, Warren

I didn't receive a hello message.

But I did receive a "You have been unsubscribed from the COFF mailing 
list" which appears to have come from newmin.tuhs.org.

Is this expected?

Or have I messed something up?

Hi Warren,

Ah, would that explain the ‘You have been unsubscribed from the COFF...’
email dated eight minutes before your one?  Presumably, any who received
it haven't really been unsubscribed from the real COFF list?

I cloned the COFF list over on newmin, then removed everybody from the cloned
list. What I didn't realise was that mailman2 would e-mail out to those that
had been removed. However, the existing COFF list on minnie is still working!

Cheers, Warren

That makes perfect sense Warren.

Not that it needs to make sense to us subscribers.  But understanding 
what's happening is very nice and appreciated.  :-)

Thank you and have a good day Warren.
