FYI, if you prefer the "Usenet newsgroup" approach to following 
discussions rather than email cluttering your mailboxes, gmane.org 
provides read-write NNTP newsreader access to several MacPorts mailing 
lists.  It also provides access in other formats such as through-the-web 
and read-only RSS feeds.
