This is an announcement to the effect that the mailing list move is now
complete. TL;DR the new list addresses are:
* announce(a)lists.libvirt.org (formerly libvirt-announce(a)redhat.com)
Low volume, announcements of releases and other important info
* users(a)lists.libvirt.org (formerly libvirt-users(a)redhat.com)
End user questions and discussions and collaboration
* devel(a)lists.libvirt.org (formerly libvir-list(a)redhat.com)
Patch submission for development of main project
* security(a)lists.libvirt.org (formerly libvir-security(a)redhat.com)
Submission of security sensitive bug reports
The online archive and membership mgmt interface is
https://lists.libvirt.org
In my original announcement[1] I mentioned that people would need to manually
re-subscribe. Due to a mixup in communications, our IT admins went ahead and
migrated across the existing entire subscriber base for all lists. Thus there
is NO need to re-subscribe to any of the lists. If you were doing filtering
of mail, you may need to update filters for the new list ID matches.
With the new list server, HyperKitty is providing the web interface. Thus
if you wish to interact with the lists entire via the browser this is now
possible. Note that it requires you to register for an account and set a
password, even if you are already a list subscriber.
If you mistakenly send to the old lists you should receive an auto-reply
about the moved destinations.
Note, we had some technical issues on Thursday/Friday, so if you sent
mails on those two days they probably will not have reached any lists,
and so you may wish to re-send them.
With regards,
Daniel

re-subscribe. Due to a mixup in communications, our IT admins went ahead and

This fuckup would be acceptable if we had an easy way to unsubscribe.
As I wrote to you in a private email, that is not the case.
I tried to create an account to unsubscribe but since I never received
the confirmation email, I'm now stuck in the limbo state of having an
account but unable to login. The irony of a mailing list failing to
send out an important email, is not lost on me either. (Yes, I did
check my spam folder).
Please unsubscribe me.

While I certainly can understand the frustration of being added to a
mailing list you didn't intend to be on, the headers of the mailing
list posts since the migration (including the announcement post) do
indicate:
List-Unsubscribe: <mailto:users-leave@lists.libvirt.org>
Have you tried that? (I haven't, so there may be some obvious reason
why you wouldn't consider it "an easy way" which isn't clear to me,
but if that is the case then that is perhaps something which _could_
be addressed.)

FWIW, I have just tested the $LIST-leave and $LIST-join email admin
addresses and confirmed that they are working, though the response
is rather on the slow side - took 20-30 minutes to get a reply. The
headers don't show the delay I'd expect from gray-listing, so it
appear it is just being slow a processing administrative requests
somewhere.
With regards,
Daniel

I'm sorry you've had difficulty.
FWIW I've just tested both the web UI registration and confirmation
email receipt, along with the $LIST-leave(a)lists.libvirt.org and
$LIST-join(a)lists.libvirt.org aliases, from a personal email addr and
all of them appear to be working as expected, albeit with some time
delays upto 20/30 mins on some mails.
Please unsubscribe me.
I've removed you from announce(a)lists.libvirt.org as that's the only
one I saw your email address subscribed to.
If anyone else has difficulty subscribing / unsubscribing / registering
on the web UI please let us know and we'll do our best to help.
With regards,
Daniel
