I've really never understood why anyone would think it's ok to send
something like this to hundreds of people.  If you are planning on
sending a message to the list then send a message to the list.  If you
don't have anything to send right now then there shouldn't be any
urgency in figuring out if your email is working.  There isn't any
reason to send a content-free message.

"Test" email is basically just spam.  You're not selling anything but
you are sending email to a bunch of people for no other reason than to
satisfy your (apparent) personal curiousity about whether you are able
to send email or whether sourceware is able to receive your email.  That
is definitely not what this list is for.

There is, however, a list called "test-list" at sourceware where this
kind of thing is ok.  If you really feel the need to send test email
here then please use that.

The sourceware server mailing list software keeps mangling my emails, 
rendering my PGP signatures invalid. I figured it might help if I didn't send 
emails using PGP/MIME. The As and =s in the email were supposed to trigger 
the problem. (Though when I thinkg about it now I think it should have been 
spaces instead.)

I do not see any such list listed on <http://sourceware.org/lists.html>. Is 
there any other relevant mailing lists list where I should have looked?

This isn't even tangentially related to cygwin.

I didn't say it was listed there and I didn't imply that you should have
known about this.  I was just trying to point you to a place where you
could experiment.
