Re: [php-list] this list on blog spot?

Yeah, unfortunately there's not a lot that we can do about it, since
Yahoo puts the RSS out there for anyone to pull in like that. At least
our email addresses aren't included in the feed! (Or the blogspot guy
is ethical enough not to include them!) And, fortunately, people can't
post to our list from outside the list.

HOWEVER... there's a good warning in there for anyone here who posts
their email address in their signature, since sigs ARE included in the
body of the post. Unless you *like* the idea of having your email
scrubbed from that site and added to a spam list, I'd suggest removing
it from your sig.
