Re: [HACKERS] Postgres mailing lists

This is a test to make sure I really can post to the ports list.

I didn't get a bounce message.

The ports list should allow bug reports from anybody. Also the rest of
what I said still applies: I think it is nice to allow cross-posted
discussions among normally unrelated lists (the person with the problem
wouldn't have been a known subscriber and someone with a solution might be
a subscriber only of the non-postgres lists) and NetBSD has (or had a year
ago) a filtering mechanism that allows it while still effectively blocking
spam.
