Thread: New email works great!
... now, how do I manage the RCs? So, my @postgresql.org mail is working now -- a very painless transition. Great work, guys! However, we have a couple dozen Regional Contacts each with an email account. I need to do a fair amount of resetting passwords, and adding new accounts this year. What's the best way to do that? Do I send requests to the WWW team (via Redmine? some other way?), or do I get rights to admin mail myself? -- Josh Berkus PostgreSQL Experts Inc. http://pgexperts.com

I actually tried to ping you on IM or IRC about that one, but you didn't respond :P I'll try again :) -- Magnus HaganderMe: http://www.hagander.net/Work: http://www.redpill-linpro.com/

Create new RC accounts (these are always countrycode@postgresql.org) 2. Change passwords on RC accounts. 3. Delete RC accounts. That's it. These are things I need to be able to do as admin; the RCs don't need to be able to. I'd like Selena to eventually have permissions as well, if possible. We did discuss setting up a separate @contact.postgresql.org mail domain. That would be completely acceptable if it's the easier course. If we can't set up a way for me to do this, be aware that I'll be dumping a long list of requests, especially for password changes, on the sysadmin staff in preparation for the release. -- Josh Berkus PostgreSQL Experts Inc. http://pgexperts.com
