[vox] So how do we make Gmail happy & get people back on these lists? :(

[Timothy D Thatcher]

Great question! I try to make sure that it's still running, but that's
about all I've done in quite some time myself. I do what I can, but that's
not a whole lot--like Bill K, I've been outside the Davis area for several
years now. There's been quite a shortage of volunteers otherwise for a long
while now.

I did add spf/dkim/dmarc records a few years ago to try and help some of
the list issues, though it didn't seem to have much of an effect. Today I
did spin up a new tiny VPS on my own dime to at least take a look at what
migration possibilities there might be, but any progress is going to be on
a "time available" basis, especially if nobody else wants to get involved!

I'm extremely open to ideas and options, happy to talk more with anyone
interested. Can talk here on the list, direct email, or catch me on the
discord server for live chat.

Tim
