I have checked again and all the moderator bits for all the ctm-* lists are off for your email address.  I don't know why it's not working for you.

I should point out that the FreeBSD Project has moved to Subversion more than eleven years ago and is actively looking into moving to Git.  There is a limit to how much time any of us are willing to put into keeping a hack around two revision control systems ago alive.

If it is easier for you to host CTM as a third-party service, I'm sure the doc team could be convinced to change any links in documentation accordingly.
