Until someone kindly pointed me at the ezmlm docs, I was unable to subscribe to this mailing list using the website interface: http://php.net/mailing-lists.php Yesterday, I clicked the "Normal" radio button next to the list, entered my e-mail address, and clicked "Subscribe". Next I received a message that said, "We were unable to subscribe you due to some technical problems. Please try again later." Following the classic definition of insanity, I tried again later and still had the same problem. Direct subscription via e-mail obviously worked just fine. I just wanted to mention this problem in case no one else has mentioned it before.

Do you happen to know which mirror you were directed too? (eg, what was the exact url you got?) -Hannes

Retraced my steps and here's the URL: http://php.net/mailing-lists.php Browser request headers: Accept text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,*/*;q=0.8 Accept-Encoding gzip, deflate Accept-Language en-US,en;q=0.5 Connection keep-alive [Removed Cookie line] Host php.net Referer http://php.net/mailing-lists.php User-Agent Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:33.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/33.0 POST data: maillist=php-webmaster&email=thruska%40cubiclesoft.com&action=Subscribe Server response headers: Connection keep-alive Content-Encoding gzip Content-Language en Content-Length 2975 Content-Type text/html; charset=utf-8 Date Sat, 15 Nov 2014 05:51:54 GMT Link <http://php.net/mailing-lists>; rel=shorturl Server nginx/1.6.2 Vary Accept-Encoding X-FRAME-OPTIONS SAMEORIGIN X-Powered-By PHP/5.5.11-2 Same error message. I found the specified URL by searching Google for "php mailing list". Then I just tried the steps again and the problem seems to have fixed itself.
