Surely you're not suggesting that ROK would ever *forget* anything?:-)
But mailing list configuration is likely - AFAIR, this list like most
others block messages from non-subscribers to cut down on spam. And the
last message directly from Richard that I still have in my inbox happens
to be this one:
http://erlang.org/pipermail/erlang-questions/2017-November/094170.html

Raimo did dutifully reply to that message, but one possibility is that
Richard didn't get around to re-subscribing, and get the list messages
forwarded from his old address, while his own messages that use the new
address are blocked. Raimo, maybe you can have a look? I know that it's
outside what can be expected from standard mailing list maintenance, but
this concerns a very special subscriber...
