 *      I've ported mailagent 3.0 PL44 (a sophisticated automatic
 * mail-filtering program).  Now, the problem with this software is there
 * is no official distribution site of the original archive.  Original
 * archive can be retrieved from archive-server which the author of this
 * package has set up as well as in some usenet newsgroups.

You can try to get it from a news archive, by setting EXTRACT_*
appropreately. :)

If that's too much trouble, we can put it on freefall.  Take a look at 
the LOCAL_PORTS comment in the handbook (section 18.2.3.5 on the
latest one on www.freebsd.org).
