For quite some time I've been unable to use the forums or ML. When I try using the "forgot my password" link on the forums, I never get the email response.

I also can't send mail to any ML. I've tried aur- and arch-general multiple times, and they just get silently dropped. I don't get any bounceback or error mail, they just never appear on the list.
This task depends upon

Just as a note, I'm posting here because I've had this issue for well over a month, and noone on IRC has been able to help. Sorry if it's the wrong place.

I can confirm password reset emails do not work.

I just tried, and I got a reset email.
Seems to work fine for me.

More digging is probably required. Could be some smtp issue.

Might it be issues with email comments? I use Daenyth+Arch@foo so I can filter things better.

As a side note, could someone please manually reset my password on forums? Catch me on irc, or use the above address @gmail.com

I can take a look at this (and reset your password) this evening.
Please send me an email from the account you used to register on the forums, along with your exact account name, so I can have some confirmation of identity.
Thanks.

With cactus's help I was able to resolve the mailing list issue. Fix here: http://archlinux.org/pipermail/arch-general/2008-June/017941.html

Also, it seems like the forum issue was mostly my own stupidity... I think. Close?
