(it is the opposite indeed).
Fixed.

-email is unavailable- will stop working.
-email is unavailable- will work instead.
The problem is that some people may still use the old e-mail so you may want
to warn them before we proceed to the change.

I do not expect anything else :)

What problems will we run into when we change the setup?

I am now able to move lynx-dev from @gnu.org to @nongnu.org.
I do not do it right now so you have the time to warn people.
Tell me when you are ready so we can change the setup and make a test.

You can change the @nongnu.org using the mailman admin interface:
http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/admin/lynx-dev
(in the bottom of the page, "Host name this list prefers for email").
That is the only parameter I changed.

Okay, though this is not good news.  I have the list set so that the outgoing address is @nongnu.org .  I will have to change that to @gnu.org until this is fixed.  Readers can't reply to the list unless outgoing mail comes from the valid (but in the long term incorrect) address.

Unfortunately I have no priviledges on mailing lists administration, so I cannot fix it myself; besides, all mailing-lists are currently not working well (several days delay), so expect a little while before this request is processed by the sysadmins :/

Mail to -email is unavailable- still bounces.  Mail to -email is unavailable- doesn't bounce, and may be delivered eventually.
The nongnu.org list is broken.  Since that's the one that we're supposed to be using, I'd really like to get it working within the next week or two.

I tried to move the mailing-list using the priviledges I have, but I failed. All I could do was changing 'gnu' to 'nongnu' in the ML presentation.

You will have to wait for sysadmins to check the mailing-list directly. I already asked them, but they still have a lot to do about the crack recovery, so it may take a while.

About the password, I did not change it. If both of you still cannot log in, then I guess my little gnu2nongnu change had a side effect on password; in that case, I will create a new one and send it to you using a GPG key.

I meant -email is unavailable-

I just got rights to administrate mailing-lists. I think I moved lynx-dev from gnu to nongnu.org. I could not find a way to remove lynx-user, but I noted it as 'to be deleted'.

Can you try whether -email is unavailable- is ok?

I asked the admins, but I did not get a reply yet.
I'll check if it is possible to move it manually.
Unfortunately, there is also an issue when creating new mailing-list, so it may take a while.
By the way, I closed your other support request since it was already submitted. See support #102659

Just after the project was added, I followed the project's administration menus: Administration, then Mailing Lists, then Add Mailing List.  The site returned an error, so we submitted a support request about it.  I recall that someone added the two lists in manually.  The second list, lynx-users@gnu.org, should be deleted.
I agree that the list should be changed to lynx-dev@nongnu.org.  How soon can this be done?  We were almost ready to start using it.
Thanks,

Bob

Since Lynx is not part of the GNU project (at least says http://www.gnu.org/directory/lynx.html), the mailing-lists should be instead at nongnu.org.

There is something wrong. Could you tell me when and how -email is unavailable- and -email is unavailable- were created?

The "How to post" paragraph here:

https://savannah.nongnu.org/mail/?group=lynx

for the lynx-dev mail list gives "lynx-dev@nongnu.org" as the posting address:

To post a message to all the list members, send email to -email is unavailable-

How can we change this text?
Mail to "lynx-dev@nongnu.org" bounces.  Mail to "lynx-dev@gnu.org" reaches the list.
