<div>It looks like feedback was originally a mailbox that was later recreated as a mailing list. Plesk migrated the mailbox and ignored the list. Few questions:</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>1. Do we need the old mailbox content? Its most recent message is from 2009.</div>
<div>2. I can recreate the feedback mailing list, but it would be nice if someone actually responded to users. I'm not sure it's worth keeping it if it's just a black hole.</div>
<div>3. Is there really any need for a feedback email? Should we request a free Discourse site? <a href="https://meta.discourse.org/t/free-hosting-for-open-source-v2/101940" target="_blank">https://meta.discourse.org/t/free-hosting-for-open-source-v2/101940</a></div>
<div>4. It's possible to import mailing list history into Discourse, and then drop the mailing lists. This even works for people who can't or won't switch from email to a web gui.<br></div>

<div>#3 also relates to Cocoaforge.</div>
