My latest article - LLLPG, part 5 - like my previous article, did not appear in the newsletter. Any ideas why?
(I'm rather jealous of "Time Period Library for .NET", which has appeared in my email on 22 separate occasions...)

Dammit Janet.
Why always you? This is frustrating.
We'll dig in first thing tomorrow morning and see what the issue was.

Thank you!  Should I apply a "dummy update" on my articles to encourage them to appear in the next newsletter?
|

Officially, no.
Unofficially: wait until next week.

Well, I waited two weeks before marking two of my articles as 'updated'. Neither of them appeared in the Newsletter today.

I see:

Concerned about regular expressions being unintelligible, repetitive, hard to get right and non-recursive? Read part 5, possibly the most useful part yet!

Argh! I see that the online newsletter is about twice as long as the one I received (which did not show my articles). Once again I wonder why it wasn't in my version of the newsletter. I think it's a bug. In my Options, my newsletter topics are still set to "C#, .NETCF, F#" (which is odd because I thought I updated those)... but of course, my article was tagged C# so it should have shown up.

Getting moderation messages for some pretty innocuous posts and everything seems to be taking a while to show up. Either I'm marked out for special attention, or the moderation queue is playing up again. (Note that includes SoapBox 1.0 which I thought wasn't supposed to be moderated).

We found a probable issue with moderation: when a Good message was marked as "good" it wasn't being added to the learning material for the filter. So threads on innocuous subjects may have been marked as spam, then continued to be marked as spam because the filter wasn't learning properly.
I'm not convinced this is the entirety of the issue, though, so we're still watching.

Please take a look at http://www.codeproject.com/Messages/5079464/Changes-to-the-Spam-Filter-and-a-little-about-how.aspx[^]. This should explain why your message(s) were sent to moderation and how they have been fixed.
I personally accepted one of you messages, and confirmed that afterward, it no longer triggered the Spam Filter. You just have a writing style that uses words that might occur in a spam message, and we had an error that wasn't considering that these were being used in non-spam.
This is not a bad thing, even Chris gets caught by the filter when he gets his Marketing hat on.
This should be fixed now, but may take a few days for the Filter to teach itself to behave.
Bad Filter, Bad. Sit. Shake. Find the Spam. Good Filter. Good Filter.

I didn't receive my daily dose of news today by e-mail.
I didn't receive neither the "Daily News" nor "The Daily Build".
(Yes, I checked the spam folder and if I have enabled the newsletter in the settings)
Did someone forget to feed the hamsters assigned to the mailouts?

|
|
They should be on their way soon
