Hello Giorgos,
I tried just now to send email to you at freebsd.org but mx1.freebsd.org
rejected my email with
"Helo command rejected: Host not found (in reply to RCPT TO command)"
It seems my postfix setup is not correct. sigh. I confirm the below
story. Please remove the listing for chifug.org until such time as it is
back in our, the FreeBSD community, possession.
