Just realized my above email was sent via a personal account because
that's what I used when signing up here.   I run domainmail.org, a free
virtual domain mailing list service for those that need such a thing,
one list in particular is SDLU which is specific to spam fighting (which
seems to be a problem for gnome.org). If someone at Gnome wants to shoot
me an email, I could easily and freely host mail.gnome.org for them on
Mailman v2.x.  The smooth process would be a few DNS changes and a rsync
of the current lists archive+settings to my system.
