You're subscribed to ports at freebsd.org mailing list, so you also receive
portscout's mails to this address. Unmaintained ports have it as
MAINTAINER address.
Portscout only sents out a single mail when it finds a new upstream
version, so it's no spam.
Many ports unmaintained ports have received updates and some even got a
new maintainer because of portscount's mails to this mailing list.
