in thread CPAN mailing lists

Which page on the wiki recommends that? That information is out-of-date.

And I just signed up to cpan-testers-discuss just fine by sending mail to cpan-testers-discuss-subscribe@perl.org. Perhaps your mail server is blocking something.

And a quick google shows me that listmast@lists.perl.org has been not working for several years. Where on earth did you find it?

      cpan-testers-discuss-subscribe@lists.perl.org is not the same as cpan-testers-discuss-subscribe@perl.org. The latter is what both I and - more importantly - lists.perl.org say you should use.

      And I'm still waiting to be told where the bogus information is in the CPAN-testers wiki.

    For me it looks like listmast@lists.perl.org is still official the feedback link today.

    You find it on lists.cpan.org in the menu on the left side, the fifthmost link from the top labelled 'Feedback'.

    It might well be that it has not been working since several years, but it is certainly still there, advertised on the main page for 'Feedback'.

    Googling the address I see that the problem is out there since at least 2007, so there is some abandonment around in the perl world.
