522838 - Use amo-editors membership list as postini whitelist

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

We've got a bunch of people on [e-mail] that send to the list very often.  Apparently postini has dropped enough and/or delays mail enough that it's becoming frustrating and disruptive.

I think it would be a good idea to synchronize the membership lists with whitelists in postini so subscriber's mail never gets blocked.

looking at postini api...

Comment 2

bulk added all the current subscribers to amo-editors (minus @mozilla.com accounts - those shouldn't look like spam and if I'm wrong we can just whitelist that domain).

I'll let this bake for a bit before closing.

Thanks.  I filed this as a generic bug though because we have other lists (and I assume other people do too) which could be running into the same problem.

In addition, amo-editors changes fairly often (we add new people on average...once every week or two, maybe?).  You'll get the bulk of people with comment 2, but that doesn't address the long term issue.

Thanks.  I had a $1 bet you'd mention that :) 

Not sure how to address the automation part, want to make sure this works first though.

Wil - lack resource time to automate this.  Is this something we can refresh (manually) once a month/quarter?

I think that would work fine.
