Hello,

> Why has relay-ctrl heen removed from the portstree ?

The ports tree made some technical upgrades recently, which required all
ports to be modified so that it still works in the new ports tree.

More about this can be found here:

https://wiki.freebsd.org/ports/StageDir

Nobody did this for mail/relay-ctrl and therefore it was removed
a few days ago.

Can you provide a patch that provides staging for this port ?
Then it can be resurrected.

If you have additional questions, please ask, and we'll try to help.
