Removing contact information in a bug tracking tool which often requires contacting the originator is a no-go. It should be as easy as possible. I note you have mangled your address to martycombs@127.0.0.1 which will probably lead to this message not reaching you and have the postmaster of freefall (where I edit this PR) get upset. This is what you get for chosing the wrong way to fight spam. :-( http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=44554 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
