I am subscribed to the mailing list:
Look again at that message! Notice the link it contains. Also check who it comes from!

You'll see that it comes from the Nabble archive NOT the mail list itself. You have subscribed to the Nabble archive. You say you are getting mail from the list, but I strongly suspect you are not. Rather you are getting mail from your Nabble archive subscription. (The only puzzle is that it seems that the person controlling the archive sent you the invitation to subscribe to the archive.)

Go to the link that you see in that message. You'll see that at the top of the page it tells you that you are at the archive of the mail list, NOT the mail list itself. Use the "More Options" link that you see there. The page that link takes you to tells you all about the mail list and its web address. (It also provides a button to subscribe to the mail list itself.)

It would seem that whoever set up the archive did so badly as the link to the web site is broken. It should read:

http://lists.vtigercrm.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vtigercrm-developers

I would recommend that you go there to subscribe to the mail list. You'll also find a link to the official mail list archive, although the format of that is not very user-friendly, which is why people often set up a further archive at Nabble.
i am also registered at the vtiger crm forum (which you mean by archive?).
As far as I can see there is no "vtiger crm forum", so I think you are referring to the archive.
I receive mails via the mailing list and also my post was forwarded via the mailing list to my email account.
Althoug if i click on "my posts" i can see that the two posts that i sent via mailing list, are still pending.
All that suggests that you are only interacting with the Nabble archive and haven't actually subscribed to the mail list yet.
Volunteer Helper - but recommending that users move off the platform!
Once the admin for GregHelp now deleted.
