Hmm, I see what you mean. Anywhere your e-mail address appears in public this could happen though. Not to mention your giving your e-mail address to any entity on the 'net that does not promise it will not sell your e-mail addy. As far as cases of spam coming directly from this list I can remember about five in the many years I have been on it. So, the two folks who are think they are getting spam from the list, is it in the format in the subject line [gecko] topic? That would indicate spam coming from this list.

I think he might be talking about the spiders and others bots that are
taking email addresses from this list and sending them to spam companies. My
old email address was bombarded with spam after joining and I didn't know
why since I had never had any spam prior. So I created a new email address
strictly for this mailing list and I already have some spam. So far it isn't
too bad.
