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.
