AAARRRGH!  <gnashing teeth>

What's happening is that I forget to change my "From:" address 
before hitting "send".  So the friendly server at efn politely 
informs me that it's holding my response to the list because it's 
from an address that isn't subscribed to the list.

Well, that's fine with me, because I don't want my "normal" email 
address showing up on any web sites -- including the archive of 
this list.

So after hitting my forehead and saying DOH! and a swear word or 
two, I resubmit the message with the return address that I want 
the world seeing (the one that's getting spam anyway).

Everything's fine.  Then the moderator of the list approves the 
first posting!

So my new, (so far spam-free) email address is now on a couple of 
web pages (this list's archive) thanks to me making the same 
stupid mistake twice in a row.
