Hii,

I flagged the recent job advertisements as spam, but also wanted to  
contact the owners of this list about that. I didn't know what address  
to use, so looking the header in each message:

Mailing-list: list ansible-project@googlegroups.com; contact  
ansible-project+owners@googlegroups.com

I used ansible-project+owners@googlegroups.com.  
But that have back this message:

This group does not accept email to owners or managers. To send a  
message to the owner, visit the following page:  
[https://groups.google.com/d/contactowner/ansible-project](https://groups.google.com/d/contactowner/ansible-project)

That page redirects to  
[https://groups.google.com/g/ansible-project/about](https://groups.google.com/g/ansible-project/about), which has no owner  
contact information whatsoever....

How do I get in touch with the owner(s)?

Thx!  
Dick

Maybe try [https://github.com/ansible-community/community-topics/issues](https://github.com/ansible-community/community-topics/issues) and note the documented email does not work?

Hi Andrew and Dick,

I've created an issue in  
[https://github.com/ansible-community/community-team/issues/242](https://github.com/ansible-community/community-team/issues/242), as the  
Ansible community team might be the owner, or at least should be able  
to figure out who actually is.

Best,  
Felix

FYI our policy is not to allow 'appropriate' job listings to this  
list. By that we mean they must be 'ansible related' and not spammy.

I think I’ve got the owner email working properly. I tested sending an email to it from an account that is a member, but has no special permissions, and confirmed it was received. I’ve added that email to the descriptions for the lists as well.

As for the job postings, they were seen, and we have taken steps to address this specific case.
