Are you nuts or just irresponsible?

It have been discussed before that we need maillist, where security
problems could be reported and mplayer developers could discuss them
in private.
I think that allowing mails that have [SECURITY] or [ADVISORY] in the
subject to pass even when send by people not subscibed, could do the
trick.

It is very harmful security problems to be reported in (the highest
volume maillist) mplayer-users , as it is now. Especially if they
don't come with fix.

Diego answer was something like he doesn't know how to do it and that
he is too busy to find out (studing for exam). He also tried to make
phun on me.
