What list? There are several. What address are you emailing to? What
error do you get?

I have posted to the the "vim_use" list without "joining" merely being
subscribed. Looks like the last time I posted was April last year,
possibly something has changed since then, but I suspect not. I posted
by emailing to <vim_use@googlegroups.com>

Google has been deleting accounts that have not been logged into for a
while. They sent me email that they were going to delete one of mine a
month or two agao, but I didn't know which one it was. I've created five
to ten accounts over the years, but have only used two of those in the
past year. Both of those are once or twice a year check email accounts.
It seems like the delete notice account may have been one I was using
with a job a few years ago.
