I would certainly have issues with my email address being published in a
list. :-)

Have recently got a few spam mails on this account. Realized that some

archives. If we had a list, the bot would be rendered useless. A less
intelligent bot can do the job for the spammers.

Dozens? Hundreds, maybe. Only a handful members post.
