Subject: [om-list] OneModel mailing lists being retired
Message-ID: <aTntxgRZPIzLM593@asusobsd.onemodel.org>

The mailing lists "om-list at onemodel.org" and "om-announce at onemodel.org"
are being retired. The provider, pair Networks, will no longer provide
the service as of Jan 1, 2026, per the below quote.  If I get new
mailing lists later, I will so indicate on the web site under "Community...".

Here is what pair Networks said:

    "Over time, the free PairList
mailing list program (based on GNU Mailman) has become unreliable as
most mail hosts now require        
strict email validation standards (SPF, DKIM, DMARC). PairList cannot
support these features, causing messages to be delayed,        
marked as spam, or rejected. Because of this declining reliability, we
believe the service no longer meets our standards and will    
be discontinued.

    "PairList has served our users well for many years. While we are sad to
retire it, we are exploring a more reliable replacement service
for the future."

I have no idea what that future replacement looks like, or when. 
If you know of a low-cost but very reliable replacement without
troubling terms and conditions, that could someday be interesting.

The contact email address listed at the bottom of the page at
the onemodel.org site will continue to work as far as I can foresee.

All best wishes,
Luke Call
