[GO] list archives turning up on google - FAO Admin
I just did a google search for 'girlsown archives' to find the page to do some catching up, and am rather worried to find the following page come up 6th on my list of hits: http://www.mail-archive.com/girlsown@home.it.net.au/msg00026.html This is a message from Natasha, sent to Girlsown last week. Lots of the archives are available on this mail-archive.com website. Why is this happening, and can this be stopped? Helen V. ___ Win a castle for NYE with your mates and Yahoo!

I assume this is to do with the archiving feature Anita turned on recently.

But it did go on the list, didn't it? Sorry if I sent it to the wrong address - but I am sure I remember Jo replying to thank me, so she at least read it. Unless I copied her in...

Is this a major issue? I don't think I post anything I mind being in the public domain. If I minded I wouldn't post it to a mailing list. Heather So I see.

RE: [GO] list archives turning up on google - FAO Admin
Emma said This is the message that Anita announces it. She doesn't mention that it will therefore be Googleable. The archives don't show email addresses, Okay, afraid you're wrong. At the bottom of each post on the mail-archive site there is a nice big button that says 'Reply by email to NAME' (or poster) and when you click it it opens the email browser with the poster's personal email address in the 'to' box and to be honest, I'm fine with that, and prefer the ability to search for keywords, rather than having to guess the right month/ poster/ email's subject . However, I suspect that this is the sort of thing that can't be a majority vote, as I suspect that those who prefer to maintain privacy have stronger feelings about it, It's not just about privacy, though that is an issue for some people. It's about email addresses being made available to spammers etc. It's something I've never suffered from because I don't have my email address posted anywhere and I don't want to start now. More than anything I object to (am furious about?) the fact that this has been done without our being told. Anita's message says nothing about public availability. I for one won't be posting again NickyW -- Girlsown mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] For self-administration and access to archives see http://home.it.net.au/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/girlsown For FAQs see http://www.club-web.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/girlsown/faq-0.htm
Re: Re: [GO] list archives turning up on google - FAO Admin
Just for the sake of completeness, I just googled my name and girlsown archive. And yes it found a post I sent. So for so good. Not a problem. Then I noticed that at the bottom of the page was an option to reply via email the writer of the message. When I clicked on the email button, my special secret GO email address came up all nicely posted into the To box in Outlook. I'm not sure that this is such a good idea - the thought of all those spammers out there getting my email address has me wibbling. Can the bit which includes our email addresses be turned off?
