What I mean is that I do receive the emails being sent to you via my macports
handle mk, but I can’t send emails through smtp.macports.org or something like
that. I’d like to be able to send emails as well, not just receive them. What
am I missing here - in case the requested is also possible since 10 years?

Greets,
Marko

I'm confused about why you're confused or what you're talking about.

We've always provided @macports.org email forwarding for committers. You tell 
us what handle you want, we set it up to forward to whatever email address you 
want. We had that for 10 years on macOS forge and we now moved that same system 
to our new server. Is it not working for you for some reason?

Yeah, I understand that. I’d be happy enough with the rewriting approach.

So, what does it mean? Does the new server support it - as written above - or 
doesn’t MacPorts support it?

You see me confused. ;)

What do you mean by address rewriting? If you are referring to problems
with SPF, the new mail server is now doing SRS [1].

Right now we do not host any mailboxes with IMAP, we only forward mails
to existing addresses. I would like to keep the administrative overhead
low, certainly all developers have an existing mailbox.

Although I thought about implementing authenticated mail submission on
our mail server in order to be able to enable SPF for macports.org and
reduce spam. But that will not happen in the near future while there are
other issues.
