This isn't exactly on-topic, but does anyone know of any mailing lists for mail admins, for discussion of deliverability (not the "bulk mailing" kind!), Google's awful behavior, etc?
There is a list for "mail admins", but they are highly selective about what you can talk about and who you can discuss, its run by anally retentive pricks who ban those who dare question them, no abuse, just list nannies over ride each others decisions with big power trips, they've lost a few admins from some large service providers over the past few years, meaning the list members have lost speedy access to have issues with those services resolved, they just join the queue like hundreds of others each day now.
disclaimer: yes, I am one of them, kicked because I (non abusively) questioned a decision by the list owner who gave me a warning, only then to be kicked by one of his power hungry minions. Honestly, it's no loss though, you have better quality discussions on reddit than on mailop :)
Ah, the "brave when behind a keyboard" types. I hate that BS.
I'm really not a reddit guy, though, I'm a mailing list guy. :-(
