Me, I use it because around a year or more ago some one took to
impersonate me and others, using our email address to grosly insult other
people he disliked. He used my address a lot.
That didn't happen in this list, it was in the Spanish list, but since
then I always pgp sign almost all my emails. It may not ever happen again,
but once bitten...
And then, there are spammers. I know for certain that some spam email is
circulating around with my email address in the "from" header. I know
because now and then I get the bounces; for instance, some one tried to
send email to this list using my older address. If challenged, I can say
they are not mine as they are not signed.
