Re: [Tools-discuss] Interesting mailman side-effect?

Hi Brian,
I've read through your mail regarding an RFC errata notification mail CC'ed to the ipv6 mailing list.

Re:
> Is there some weird coupling between the errata processing and mailman?

Not that we know of. Errata notification mails are sent from rfc-editor@rfc-editor.org and the WG mailing list is CC'ed (when relevant). 

We have not received reports of a similar issue with other errata notification mails. Please let us know if this recurs.

Thanks,
