The email addresses are obfuscated. That is false. Email address in the bodies of messages -- such as in the attribution of quotes, as above -- are not obfuscated.

It claims "we strip out, scramble, or lightly obfuscate all email addresses from message headers and bodies". That is, in fact, false -- either faudulent or erroneous. My email address appears in full at the bottom of my posts as they appear on that site. J C Lawrence <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> subsequently wrote: > Private lists don't let mail-archive subscribe to them. This is also false. Mail-archive.com helpfully provides means for third parties to subscribe email lists to which they have no administrative authority, without notification to the list administrators. -- http://cms-list.org/ more signal, less noise.
