technically incorrect and from a usability point of view it errors on
the side of exposing someone's potentially private email.
Oh I've read it and understand it - I just think it's completely wrong from a usability and conceptual perspective.

People shouldn't need to know how to configure things like this:-

:0 Whc: msgid.lock
| formail -D 16384 msgid.cache
:0 a:
duplicates

to participate on a mailing list.

The whole point of the web, and especially a server side language like PHP, is that it doesn't care what user-agent is accessing it. You can't assume that everyone is using *nix systems to particpate in this list. Due to work related reasons I have to use both Linux and Windows.
