Hey all, net-mail/vmailmgr is looking for someone to adopt it, or it will die.

There are four open bugs[1] for this package, last entry in upstream
changelog[2] is from year 2000, and net-mail, nor qmail-bugs are not interested
in maintaining it further.
If noone volunteers to take the package within a week, I'm removing it from
portage.

Thanks for your time.

This isn't a reason for removing a package from the tree. I, for one, 
use this application.
I've taked maintainership of this one.

Great, I'm glad we do not have to remove the package after all. I wanted to
remove it, because IIRC atleast two of mentioned bugs dealt with vmailmgr not
even compiling without errors.

I'm glad you've taken it, thanks.
