Start by not doing sending email anymore as root (the address I am replying to is the address that shows as your "From" address, to all members of the list, including would-be crackers. Doing anything Internet related as root isn't a very good idea. Create yourself a user account (man adduser) and use this from now on for all of your daily activities. Don't use root for anything but system administration and testing. Anyways, try sending email (as a user, not root!) to: majordomo@FreeBSD.org ...with: subscribe freebsd-security ...in the body of the message.
