I'll assume that this is a brain fart.
Yeah, the post I saw was probably due to a broken mailer, as it's replying
to a post from 2003.

The email addresses that are published on gmane.org are munged.
You might like to look again. I can clearly see everyone's emails.
I agree with that. It obfuscates the email address when it displays the
actual post, but the email address is in clear, and hence harvestable,
when you look at the search lists.
Which definition of munged are you using? yes it's human readable, but it's
not immediately obvious to a robot that it's an email address.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] looks pretty much unmunged and machine readable to me.
