Re: [gnome-flashback] Regressions from previous gnome-panel releases

[Lance <lbsolost yahoo com>]

Hi Alkis, I'm sure I'll get another bounce message from the list so I specifically included you ;^/

I am subscribed to the mailing list so I get messages delivered to my AT&T account, but the mailing list won't let me send messages because AT&T uses Yahoo mail, which is the same address I use everywhere including Launchpad:

https://launchpad.net/~lbsolost

So I receive messages from the mailing list as "erickbrunzell sbcglobal net" (SBC was purchased by AT&T) but my replies are automatically sent from "lbsolost yahoo com". I did some testing and the results are the same even if I create a new AT&T email acct.

And that mail is synced with Thunderbird so I'm not real hot on the idea of changing things - remember I'm legally blind!

I have attempted to contact the mailing list admin, Jonathan Carter, but I've received no response and looking at the mailing list archives it appears he's been inactive since September.

Could you possibly raise that issue on the mailing list? An inactive mailing list administrator is a pretty serious "bug".

Regarding actual "flashback" bugs please subscribe or at least mark that you're effected:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-gnome/+bug/1266307

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=721613

Many, many thanks in advance,

Lance

I'm forwarding a message from someone that is trying to post to the list about this topic, but for some reason isn't able to.

He filed the bug report that Alberts asked:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-panel/+bug/1267787

Lance, maybe you need to subscribe to the list before you're able to send messages:
https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-flashback-list

Dmitry, thanks for the backported version, it did solve the resolution changing issue. And of course thank you Alberts for fixing that!

Cheers,
Alkis
