issues posting to the dev list

[Eli the Bearded]

Someone in comp.editors is reporting that attempts to post to Vim Dev
list (<vim...@googlegroups.com> and <vim...@vim.org>) are bouncing
with Google errors:

"We're writing to let you know that the group you tried to
contact (vim_dev) may not exist, or you may not have permission
to post messages to the group. A few more details on why you
weren't able to post:
* You might have spelled or formatted the group name incorrectly.
* The owner of the group may have removed this group.
* You may need to join the group before receiving permission to post.
* This group may not be open to posting.
If you have questions related to this or any other Google Group,
visit the Help Center at https://groups.google.com/support/."

Subscribing to the list works, but doesn't fix the problem.

Anyone running that list and able to read/post to Usenet still?

I suggested the google version of the list address and don't have
any other concrete suggestions.

I cannot see a member with that name or E-Mail address in either the
vim_use or vim_dev list. You can direct him to me, but my possibilities
are limited. Google groups is a free service but also has no real
support unfortunately.

Thanks,
Christian
