Why are you waiting to get on the Pier list? That should happen
immediately, else you probably registered at the wrong place.

Every so often I hear that people are trying to register at
<http://impara.de/mailman/listinfo/smallwiki>, what does not work as
this is just a mirror of the archive. I think it would be good to
disable this form. Who is responsible?

The official mailing-list registration and the archive is reachable at
<https://www.iam.unibe.ch/mailman/listinfo/smallwiki>.

Hope this helps,
Lukas

Use WAKomEncoded instead of WAKom and see if the problem gets solved

Cheers,
