Isn't the CUPS mailing list here?:

    https://lists.cups.org/pipermail/cups/

The archives seem to show a small number of mails (usual for that
list, apparently) as recently as November and no indication about
the shutdown of the list.

The mail servers for that domain do claim to accept email for that
address:

…but they could of course be accepting it and then sending a
non-delivery notice afterwards.

Beyond that I cannot test without actually trying to send an email
there, which would seem rude from a non-subscriber.

Is that the list that you are talking about?

> Help will be much appreciated.

I didn't really find any of your complaints actionable as they did
not provide any specific information. I think you will do better if
you did the usual thing of explaining:

- exactly what you did
- what exactly happened including exact output of any error message
  given (not your recollection of what may have happened)
- what exactly you expected to happen instead

Thanks,
Andy
