> After our TLP move, whenever you send mail to velocity-user-subscribe@jakarta.apache.org, the answer is
> <ve...@jakarta.apache.org>:
> Sorry, no mailbox here by that name. (#5.1.1)
> I know that this is intentional and technically the right thing, because this list is now user@velocity and user-subscribe@velocity, however that address is referenced in numerous articles, books and web pages and just sending out a "this does not exist" doesn't send the right message to a potential user.
> Can we either get an alias (just as with velocity-user@jakarta) or a more meaningful error message (that would be preferable but probably harder to do (don't know about qmail, with sendmail you could just add a line to the access file)?
> See VELOCITY-498 for a bug report.
