I didn't get them either. I think it's clear that vger ate them. vger will drop anything it thinks is spam. That's often by triggering the taboo list[1], though I don't see anything in the messages below that would do so. Badly formatted messages can be a problem, as well (e.g., missing message-ids or dates, I think). -Peff [1] Try https://github.com/git/git/blob/todo/taboo.perl to check the taboo list locally.
