Broken links for subscribe to User List

[Steve Fyfe <sd...@cnicorp.com>]

The links to sign up for the user list are broken on the Avalon web
site.

On the general Jakarta mail list page at
http://jakarta.apache.org/site/mail2.html, the link goes to
mailto:avalon-users-subscribe@jakarta.apache.org 


On the Avalon page at http://avalon.apache.org/mailing-lists.html, the
link is specified as mailto:avalon-users-subscribe.at.jakarta.apache.org
but that is an invalid address. If I replace the .at. with @, it is the
same as the one above.

I had the same problem when I tried to subscribe to this list. I only
succeeded by experimenting with various forms of the address, and
eventually I found that dev-subscribe@avalon.apache.org worked. But the
same approach with the user list still gives me a reject notice.

Can someone tell me how to subscribe to the user list? 

TIA
Steve

Sorry about that.  Avalon is in the process of moving from being a 
subproject of Jakarta to a top level
Apache product.  The lists have changed names as follows:

avalon-dev@jakarta.apache.org --> dev@avalon.apache.org
avalon-users@jakarta.apache.org --> users@avalon.apache.org
avalon-cvs@jakarta.apache.org --> cvs@avalon.apache.org

To subscribe to dev@avalon.apache.org send an empty message (no subject 
or body) to

    dev-subscribe@avalon.apache.org

and that should take care of it.  I'll see about changing the site...  

Thanks for bringing this up.
