I must be living in a parallel universe, checking https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-ports/2017-December/thread.html there has been one (1) spam message getting through so far this month. That's a really tremendous amount of spam. > * Users are more likely to find better answers to their questions: The > first three times a question is asked, it gets detailed replies.

Is a moderator ensuring that messages from unsubscribed users, who just sent a mail to the maintainer of an unmaintained port get through? Otherwise we will probably miss a lot of bug reports from Users who don't bother to subscribe. _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
