I went digging through the mail-svn logs. On 2013-10-16 decke@ requested vbox@ to be forwarded to emulation@ because he was the only active person left on the alias. It sounds like the alias only continues to exist to catch mail for where it's referenced. Changing the references to emulation@ seems like it was the intended way forward 8 years ago. I'm sure we can wait a while for bugmeister to deploy their change, mass-reassign and delete the alias. Philip -- Philip Paeps Senior Reality Engineer Alternative Enterprises
