I agree, some of the emails look just like spam, others look proper help

"proper help *offers*", you mean :-)
We have replied several of these emails, with details on how to contribute
and the next steps, but unfortunately none (AFAIK) of the responses has
received feedback or has been continued.
I am glad to hear you have been replying.
It would help this community to keep aware of and engaged in what is
happening if you could ensure all replies to emails on this list are
also on this list.
Often one of the very first steps we mention is to subscribe to a project
mailing list and start participating, and I guess that might be some kind
of "too much" [...]
I can't usefully comment on your responses until I see one :-)
Honestly, the feedback and engagement loop of the help wanted system could
be improved, but Idespite having thought about it I haven't had yet any
good idea to bring to this list.
Suggestions (and even more patches) are very welcome!
Ack.
Just being aware is the first step.

In the past 16 days I have seen 11 "Help with task: ..." emails arrive on
this list, but no mention of a response.
These are, I suppose, sent by people clicking on our "mailto" links on
pages such as https://helpwanted.apache.org/task.html?24ee9dd8
The first two looked like spam, the later ones looked more likely genuine.
Is anyone responding to them?
