What is the procedure to submit a new port when you don't have access to
a dedicated and highly-visible Freebsd machine on the internet?

If you try to send a PR from a regular-person connection (e.g. DSL or 
modem - with no verifiable hostname) sendmail , probably to protect itself 
from spam, rejects the submission.

I wonder how many people just give up trying.

So, what address or mailing list should a new port be sent to if you 
can't use send-pr? Should this be documented in the porter's handbook?
