Release Engineering Email Trac Queue Disabled =

[[JesseKeating|Jesse Keating] announces[1]:

"Until further notice the email to trac gateway for rel-eng has been disabled. We've been unable to cope with the spam attacks and the subsequent mail loops that have been created, and thus we have disabled the gateway.

For the time being if you need release engineering to do something for you, please use the web UI to file a ticket."
