Dear Debian mailplate maintainer,

Thank your for maintaining package mailplate in Debian in the past decades.
However as you can see in https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/mailplate , this
package saw no upload in Debian in the last 12 years. Besides, the registered
homepage is now unavailable (403 Forbidden). Now mailplate is affected by
Debian's ongoing effort in removing all python2-related packages [1].

I'm wondering if you are going to work on this package to have it migrated to
Python3 so that it no longer depends on the now-EOL python2. If that cannot be
achieved in the near future, the best choice of dealing this package might be
having it removed for now and re-introduce it later when the migration is
properly done.

For now I will be preparing for the package removal and submit the removal
request 28 days later (on July 10, 2020). Meanwhile if you have any other
thoughts, please let me know asap so that this package can be properly handled
and maintained.

Boyuan Yang
