Hello

AFAIK, there are some settings in the mailing list admin, for not to display the full email address of the sender.

For example, actual email address may be [email protected] but it will display like - [email protected] or something like that.

We are using Mailman right? Or some other script?

Best Regards
Din.

I have noticed that the mails sent to our mailing list has been archived in different websites which in turn appear in search results of different search engines. Even though these mails has been archived for useful purposes there is a a huge threat in this system. The mailing list archive pages contain the email addresses of the users which can be easily accessed by human spammers or bots which in turn results in spam. So i humbly request to please consider this since everyone likes to have a certain level of privacy.
