Issues requesting permission to publish packages

26 Jan 2020

      Hi Haskell-Cafe,

I recently tried to upload a package to hackage and sent an email to
hackage-trustees@haskell.org to request to be added to the uploaders
group. Unfortunately my email was undelivered due to an SPF Failure --
here's what the error emailed to me looks like:
...
 (expanded from
): host
     host.personal-email.com[xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx] said: 550 5.7.23
     : Recipient address
rejected: Message rejected due to:
     SPF fail - not authorized. Please see
     http://www.openspf.net/Why?s=mfrom;id=vados@vadosware.io;ip=<IP of
haskell.org server>;r=<UNKNOWN>
     (in reply to RCPT TO command)
It looks like the SPF settings on my domain forbid the bounce off of
hackage-trustees to the individual trustee that was picked. Two points:

- This seems like an unintended leaking of information (I have one of
the emails of the trustees, via the error message)

- How else can I request the ability to become a package uploader?

Thanks,
Victor
