Hi Guys,

   Jens Remus has been having some problems with emails sent to the binutils list:

He sent an email to mailman@sourcware.org but that was rejected:

Your message has been rejected, probably because you are not
subscribed to the mailing list and the list's policy is to prohibit
non-members from posting to it.  If you think that your messages are
being rejected in error, contact the mailing list owner at
mailman-owner@server2.sourceware.org.

Strangely when I checked the archive I did see most of those missing posts:

[PATCH 0/2] aarch64: Fixes access to struct aarch64_opnd_info members
   https://sourceware.org/pipermail/binutils/2024-June/135007.html
   https://sourceware.org/pipermail/binutils/2024-June/135006.html
   https://sourceware.org/pipermail/binutils/2024-June/135005.html

[PATCH v4 00/15] sframe: Enhancements to SFrame info generation
   https://sourceware.org/pipermail/binutils/2024-June/135081.html
   https://sourceware.org/pipermail/binutils/2024-June/135083.html

Patch 06/15 from this series does appear to be missing however.

I am not sure what is going on, but if you could have a look and let
Jens know, that would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers
