Congratulations. 8~)

BTW - your e-mail address is showing on the community's bio.

[low-delta.livejournal.com]

No big deal, I think. I guess I could change it to low_delta@livejournal, huh?

[banana.livejournal.com]

Not unless it's been changed since I tried to put my LJ address on my communities.

You could hide the address on the edit info page and then put your LJ address in the bio, or just say in the bio that you're the maintainer.

Is there a particular reason I shoudln't have it on there?

[banana.livejournal.com]

No big reason. I just wondered if you'd put it there on purpose.

[low-delta.livejournal.com]

They still won't let you use a LJ address. I wonder why not.

I might change it - put it in the bio - but I like the bio the way it is. :-)

I posted about this somewhere, and IIRC bradfitz said that it's a mistake - it should just be stopping you mail for an LJ account back to the same LJ account.

Did you put this in community_promo?

What?

Imagine what would happen if instead of your comment notifications going to your freekee@... address, you asked for them to go to low_delta@livejournal.com.

When you get a comment (like this one, for example) LJ would send an e-mail to low_delta@livejournal.com, and LJ would receive the mail, and forward it to low_delta@livejournal.com, and so on ad infinitum.

[low-delta.livejournal.com]

Oh. Yeah. But it doesn't work that way for communities, and that's why it is a mistake?

[banana.livejournal.com]

Yes. You should be able send mail from your communities to your LJ address, and then it would be forwarded to freekee@...
