Don't worry, at e.g. marc.info the addresses have been appropriately
obscured.

Bottom line is when using a public list, if you don't want your e-mail address to be public you use something like yahoo or gmail for the list mail.

Spam bots can and do subscribe to public lists to harvest e-mail addresses, if you are subscribed to a popular public list the spambots have your e-mail. That's just the way of things.
