 7c6f434c | Not urgent, but would like to understand eventually.
OpaVote says elections@nixos.org is bouncing. Last time I expected to receive something specific from them to that address, it got delivered.
When someone has time, could it be checked if there was any bounce logged for an email from opavote.com domain recently (in the last 10 days I guess)?
Thanks! | 19:56:55 |
 hexa | no mention of "opavote" (case insensitive) in the postfix log of the last 14 days | 21:46:17 |
| hexa | that would be from oct 7th | 21:46:31 |
| 7c6f434c | Thanks! No clue what bounce they are complaining about then, but oh well. | 21:47:00 |
 Lun | Could it be related to https://github.com/NixOS/infra/issues/873 if that' | 21:54:09 |
| Lun | * Could it be related to https://github.com/NixOS/infra/issues/873 if that's impacting MX lookups? | 21:54:16 |
| hexa | no, that issue was only affecting ALIAS records for resolvers that were directed to the milano pop of Gandi | 23:02:38 |
| hexa | and we only had alias records on the apex, since we can't have CNAMEs there | 23:02:59 |

 Vladimír Čunát | MX is on the apex, but ALIAS is only about address records, so I don't think MX queries were affected. | 05:19:50 |
| Vladimír Čunát | Man, Gandi support is being really unhelpful about the ALIAS issue. | 05:29:29 |
 emily | I heard Gandi has gone downhill the past years... | 14:21:07 |
| hexa | it has | 15:47:38 |
| hexa | their motto for a long time was "No bullshit" | 15:48:01 |
| hexa | dnscontrol maps an alias to a cname on a non apex name | 15:52:39 |
| hexa | sigh | 15:52:42 |
| hexa | I'm going to sacrifice nix.dev ig | 15:52:50 |
 Jeremy Fleischman (jfly) | Have we considered moving websites to be under www.<whatever>? | 17:15:32 |
| hexa | something for marketing to decide | 17:17:40 |
| hexa | this breaks all kinds of search engine entries | 17:17:48 |
| hexa | aiui | 17:17:54 |
| hexa | but right now they're investigating alternatives to netlify where we can just point to ip addresses | 17:18:15 |
| Vladimír Čunát | It does? I'd assume that you still keep the non-www variant as a slow-ish http redirect. | 17:19:15 |
| hexa | yeah, but the url changes, you get duplicated content in the cache | 17:19:39 |
| hexa | vague memories here | 17:19:42 |
| Vladimír Čunát | Yes, you want the URL to change. | 17:19:56 |
| Vladimír Čunát | (and avoid using the non-www variant) | 17:20:10 |
| hexa | yes, but with the understanding what that means for our web presence | 17:20:18 |
| Vladimír Čunát | * (and avoid using the non-www variant in links, etc.) | 17:20:21 |
| hexa | which is not infra's job | 17:20:22 |
| hexa | feel free to suggest that to marketing though | 17:20:55 |
