Thanks for the clarification / confirmation.  I'll treat the sourceforge
email as legitimate.

The message does mention reconfirmation via sourceforge.net website. So if you,
like me, mistrust the email, just log into your SF.net account and reconfirm 
there.

[Mingw-w64-public] Semi-OT: Is this sourceforge email legit? (Fwd: Important Account Information - Reconfirm Mailing List Subscriptions)

2017-06-08 Thread K. Frank 
Hello List!

I just wanted to check whether this email from sourceforge is legit.
It seemed a little odd -- out of the blue -- and sourceforge has earned
itself an imperfect reputation.

Is this okay?  Have others got this?


Thanks.
