On this page:

https://lists.postgresql.org/manage/

In the section "Manage email addresses", the text reads in part:

You can also blacklist your own email address from the lists.

"Blacklist" is an increasingly disfavored term. I think "block" or "disallow" are both reasonable alternatives.

I'm moving this from -advocacy to -www, since that's a more appropriate list to discuss the change.
