I've done this as our listinfo pages were getting mined for the owner addresses
and then, working on the supposition that the owner is also a subscribed
address, spammers would spoof email to the lists using those addresses with
some measure of success.
If you patch HTMLFormatter.py with:
class HTMLFormatter:
def GetMailmanFooter(self):
- ownertext = COMMASPACE.join([Utils.ObscureEmail(a, 1)
- for a in self.owner])
+ ownertext = Utils.ObscureEmail(self.GetOwnerEmail())
You'll see listname-owner--at--domain instead of the real owners' address which
you can see an example of at
