It's not spam, but a very useful service. I you don't work on any
ports, you should be able to filter it very easily with procmail or
your mail reader.
Probably more to the point is that it shouldn't get sent to the ports
mailing list - just to port maintainers.
Did you ever think that sending it to the list might motivate someone else
to take over the port?
There's a reason ports get out of date. One of the reasons is because the
port maintainer has lost interest or no longer has the time. If people on
the list see it, someone who is motivated might update the port and end up
being its new maintainer.
