I see all recent list traffic here, including your message: http://docs.freebsd.org/mail/current/freebsd-security.html The "early alert" message could easily include that URL, which would help people find any recent discussion missed before subscribing. (Or just view via the web interface without even subscribing.) Mail from previous weeks can be found here: http://docs.freebsd.org/mail/archive/2001/freebsd-security/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-security" in the body of the message
