Hi,

I'm a bit confused, I created the ruby.posix.mq list last night
and sending another message to it caused me to get another
confirmation request...

Yep, I just tried it (you should get my test message) and your list
works.  It was the cross posting.

I'll take a look tomorrow and see what caused it.

Odd, so you cross posted it to ruby-talk and ruby.posix.mq which seems
to trigger a bug that makes librelist think this is a new list.
Probably need to go check that it's using the right address.

For now don't cross post and it should let you post again.  Also, did
you register a list ruby@librelist.com too?  I have a record for you
confirming a subscribe to that list, but I'm thinking this is the buggy
record from when you cross posted.

You ruby.posix.mq list seems to be functioning fine though, but try it
and make sure (without cross posting).

Nope, never heard of ruby@librelist.com

Yup, just reposted the 0.2.0 announcement and it went through.
Thanks for tracking this down, I'll avoid cross posts for the time
being.

Cool, do me a favor and don't confirm that message you got.  I'll leave
it in this state so I can debug it.

I never got one for ruby@librelist.com

If you meant the second one I got for ruby.posix.mq@librelist.com,
I already confirmed that one again when I originally got it :x
