For this kind of stuff I think you are right that ticketing on the
tasks tracker in the sysadmin component would be much better.

okfn-help sort-of operates as our catch-all on the logic that if
traffic on a given topic got too much we'll spawn another list ...

sysadmin alias is needed for things like usage as contact email
address by monitoring systems etc. Most people on the infrastructure
WG are subscribed (though not all -  some people don't want all that
mail!).
