Hi, > I see a number of mails cross-posted to current@freebsd.org and > freebsd-current@freebsd.org, and so get two copies in the freebsd-current > digest I receive. > > Is there any reason to have two addresses pointing at this list? As far as I > can see from the web, 'freebsd-current@' is the advertised address. If > current@ is a legacy hangover, could it be killed? I suppose both exist for historical reasons. However the correct mailing-lists addresses are the form freebsd-*@FreeBSD.org. The simple reason is coherency among all mailing-lists : freebsd-security@FreeBSD.org is not the same as security@FreeBSD.org which points to the FreeBSD Security Officer (so@FreeBSD.org) IIRC.
