[BLU/Officers] Fwd: Re: wind mailing list - change in the list name in email headers

[abreauj at gmail.com (John Abreau)]

I have no idea what they're talking about. As far as I know, that list
has always been called "wind", as it is now. It was never called
"wind.blu.org" or "wind.cheyenne.blu.org", it's always been just plain
"wind".

There have never been any DNS records for a "wind.blu.org" or a
"wind.cheyenne.blu.org", nor do we have any virtual domains defined
to use those names. I don't know where they got the URLs they
refer to in their message.
