Re: [xml-dev] Mask e-mail addresses in xml-dev archives ?
Hi Ken,
Definitively I vote for masking the e-mails in the xml-dev
archives. Just yesterday I received this e-mail:
> > >
Business
These are all 100% opt-in email addresses,
meaning that the subscribers have requested
to receive info on subjects they are interested
in.
All emails are verified and fresh.
World Email Lists
Country or area total emails
America 175 Million Email
Address
Europe 156 Million Email
Address
Asia 168 Million
Email Address
England 22 Million Email
Address
German 40 Million
Email Address
France 38 Million Email
Address
other Country or Area ....more
> > >
Please read the description of this "business opportunity". This
e-mail proves your point of view.
Perhaps someone could explain if there is any use in having our
e-mail addresses open to the public (including spammers).
Regards,
Razvan

This happens so frequently it's obvious someone has harvested the list as
targets for e-mails containing malware.
What's the consensus about masking e-mail addresses in the xml-dev list archives
at
http://lists.xml.org/archives/xml-dev/ ?
