Get notified when packages are built

A new feature has been added. FreshPorts already tracks package built by the FreeBSD project. This information is displayed on each port page. You can now get an email when FreshPorts notices a new package is available for something on one of your watch lists. However, you must opt into that. Click on Report Subscriptions on the right, and New Package Notification box, and click on Update.

Finally, under Watch Lists, click on ABI Package Subscriptions to select your ABI (e.g. FreeBSD:14:amd64) & package set (latest/quarterly) combination for a given watch list. This is what FreshPorts will look for.

Description:
This is a port of VM, a mail program running in Emacs or XEmacs. VM (View Mail) is an Emacs subsystem that allows UNIX mail to be read and disposed of within Emacs. Commands exist to do the normal things expected of a mail user agent, such as generating replies, saving messages to folders, deleting messages and so on. There are other more advanced commands that do tasks like bursting and creating digests, message forwarding, and organizing message presentation according to various criteria. It was written as an alternative to the Emacs RMAIL mail reader. VM is highly configurable and easy to use. It supports POP and IMAP for mail retrieval, understands MIME, and reads both the standard UNIX mailbox format and the BABYL format used by the RMAIL mailer. Some other features: - thread viewing - virtual folders - gpg integration WWW: http://www.nongnu.org/viewmail/ WWW: https://launchpad.net/vm/

Changes to editors/emacs and Mk/bsd.emacs.mk were taken from
PR/137956 by Ashish SHUKLA (thanks!).  [1]

Those ports which define EMACS_PORT_NAME to be "emacs21" were
not touched (this time). They may be converted to the new
world order by removing the above mentioned assignment.

Four ports were marked as BROKEN with EMACS_PORT_NAME=emacs23
(they do not compile):
. lang/bigloo;
. mail/wanderlust;
. mail/wanderlust-devel;
. www/emacs-w3m.

Three ports were marked as IGNORE with EMACS_PORT_NAME=emacs23:
