I just noticed something that's very disconcerting.  Our email 
addresses are being posted online from this mailing list.  Does anyone know 
about this?  I was doing a search when I came across this page:

http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.beginners/2013/03/msg122680.html

        As you can see, my email address is there for the world to see.  Is 
there a way to prevent this from happening?  It seems it would be so easy for 
someone to scape that site for our addresses.  The list blocks the address of 
the sender, but if there's an address in the body of the email, it's sent 
through.

        Very shortly after I posted to this list I started getting spam.  I 
couldn't figure out what had happened, but this could be why.

Thanks,
Angela

BTW, I noticed it's not the same for everyone.  Some peoples addresses are 
shown while others are not.
