My pleasure, David.... but before you start sounding *completely*
victimized and pointing the finger, you may want to think about the
fact that your email address is already plain text on some of the
archive sites --- including MARC. Just go to Google and type in your
address.... five results with plain text email address posting (and
much more when you visit each link).
Yes, and it's obvious how that happens. It's because people, including
yourself, don't have the courtesy to set up your email or newreader
program to remove the sender's address from replies.
However, if it's that big of a deal to you or anyone else, let me
know and I'll have the script omit your address from the report. I'm
still going to track the information, including each email address,
but I'll remove the addresses of those who may otherwise have nothing
to whine about.
This isn't a whine. The reason the PHP lists require a genuine email
address for posting is to cut back on spam. I managed to keep this
address spam-free for many years. Not any longer. Your action has not
helped.
If you intend to store the email addresses of people using this mailing
list, there should be a clear statement of privacy policy on the PHP
site. If there is one, I couldn't find it.
