 Note that FreeBSD.org doesn't administer the services on jp.FreeBSD.org.  
 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.
