Why can’t I login?
If you have filled out the password reminder form and you are still unable to login using the correct password and email address, the most likely culprit is your browser. Make sure that cookies are enabled for the domain lists.riseup.net. If unsure, try using a different browser or a different computer.
Why doesn’t my list work?
Here are the most likely reasons:
- Your list might not have been approved yet. You will get an email notice when your list has been approved and is ready for use.
- Lists which end in -admin or -admins will not work, but the software lets you create them anyway. You can rename your list if this is the problem.
- Wait a half an hour. Sometimes the server will be in the middle of distributing messages to a very large list. While this is going on, it is hard for other messages to get distributed.
- The software which sends out mail might be down. This happens more than we would like. You can test to see if the software is running by sending yourself a password reminder. If you don’t receive it, then probably all mail delivery is delayed.
