I did a Google search for my email address, inside quotes, and it came up in various Nabble postings. In addition, there have been a couple of instances recently where list members had their computers compromised, and if they contained copies of your postings containing your email address it could have been harvested by the malware.
It just isn't possible to use email and keep an address secure, I'm afraid. ----- Julian, G4ILO.
