I'm pretty sure I posted about this about a year ago or so in that (as I
remember) the Stalker site has the archives of this list in plain text on
HTML pages.

Since it's obvious to me that spammers subscribe to these types of talk
lists to see what we're doing to stop them and get a jump on the
workarounds. ( I hope listmembers noticed that as soon as we discussed the
fact that they were sending Cc'd addresses in alphabetical order and
allowing us to block them easily that they became randomized.)

And since we all routinely mention what scum sucking bastards they are I'm
sure one of them built a 'bot to harvest all the archive pages and suck out
the email addresses.

My mailing list reader email address just recently got on the spam lists and
maybe this is how it got there.
