Hi Rob, all, It's not mandatory to subscribe to the members-discuss mailing list and there is no automatic subscription. Only the ncc-announce list is mandatory. Currently, there are 8,800 subscriptions to members-discuss, a little over half the membership. Of these, we estimate that approximately one-eighth of them are role accounts, such as support@, hostmaster@, noc@, etc. There could well be more that are not so easy to identify. This means a large number of people will receive mails and not understand why. We will look at the issues and work to come up with a solution that ensures the list remains a useful discussion forum for members. I've noted the comments and suggestions here and on the members-discuss list and we'll take them into account when addressing the issue. Best regards, Fergal Cunningham Membership Communications Officer RIPE NCC On 06/09/2017 10:53, Rob Evans wrote: > >>> What am I trying to say?
