yes.. true.. i dont mind a personal email if they did not get the email
address from the list or so.. but then again, our email addresses are
available even for non list subscribers on escribe et al.
palm should specify a policy of such and ensure that the news groups
mirroring websites also maintain that agreement.

:)) the guy posted a message to the list IN ADDITION to a personal
email, so everyone got that "we have $2.5 millions for a research..."
email :>
i guess for now, we just put up with it - as there is not much that
can be done.. most emails like that go /dev/null. :P
