Instead, jp.FreeBSD.org is delegated to a separate group that manages all of the resources for jp.FreeBSD.org including DNS, mailing lists, etc. You need to contact the folks there via postmaster@jp.FreeBSD.org. Note also that spam is an unfortunate reality and that there is only so much that a public mailing list run by volunteers in their spare time can do. -- John Baldwin <jhb@FreeBSD.org> <>< http://www.FreeBSD.org/~jhb/ "Power Users Use the Power to Serve" = http://www.FreeBSD.org
