Hi Marcel,
(currently I have switched to the digest subscription option so that I can receive your answers :D)
Thanks for the details!

This is strange ...
Object pinning vs. garbage collection

I have not subscribed enough time ago to receive any VMMaker message. I will report back. :-)
> What about my messages to vm-dev from April 2022? Were you subscribed then?
For instance in the thread "Object pinning vs. garbage collection", I cannot read any of your messages:

Best,

Hi all,
while I have subscribed to squeak-dev for a longer time, I only subscribed recently to vm-dev. Unfortunately, I cannot view most messages in my e-mail client - I only see an attachment of the HTML file. It appears as if the plaintext version of the message is missing and the HTML version is classified incorrectly. This does not regard messages from the OSVM bot (GitHub) only but also normal messages sent by Eliot, Marcel, et al. - but at the same time, the messages sent by the same person to squeak-dev look fine on my end.
In other mailing clients (and in Squeak Inbox Talk), everything looks fine, but I do not want to switch away from OWA. In the message headers, I could not find any interesting difference. My subscription settings for both lists are identical. I also noted that the pipermail archives do not look identical, but this is probably unrelated.
Any ideas on what might cause this, and any chance to fix this in the mailing list configuration/servers?
Thanks in advance,
Christoph

Hi Christoph --
My best guess is that for most content, there is only ...
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
But for HTML content, that base64 portion is still there but empty and
a "multipart/7bit" thingy is appended:
Content-Type: multipart/alternative;
boundary="--==_mimepart_6270e81cedff8_504bd4087255e8"; charset="UTF-8"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit
----==_mimepart_6270e81cedff8_504bd4087255e8
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="UTF-8"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit
[...]
----==_mimepart_6270e81cedff8_504bd4087255e8
Content-Type: text/html; charset="UTF-8"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit
[...]
Hmm.... on squeak-dev, Chris' mail about "source.squeak.org upgrade" was
Content-Type: multipart/mixed;
And used "base64" and "quoted-printable" for plain/text and html/text respectively.
That version seems to work on OWA as well.
Well ... one could look at the vm-dev configuration in mailman to figure out when
Content-Type: multipart/mixed;
is claimed but the main portion is
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
Content-Disposition: inline
IA==
... and thus empty. Yet, a clever e-mail client can figure this out es well. OWA cannot. :-)
Best,
Marcel

This would mean that the kind of messages sent to vm-dev is fundamentally different to the once sent to squeak-dev. Provided that you can actually read all stuff that arrives via squeak-dev. Hmm... GitHub is not sending stuff to squeak-dev.
We are sending messages for commits to VMMaker and Trunk to vm-dev and squeak-dev. Do those look okay on vm -dev for you?
What about my messages to vm-dev from April 2022? Were you subscribed then?
Best,
Marcel
