Naming and shaming... Person at fault this time is Kevin Waterson, employee of http://www.blueglue.com.au/
(And the account is deleted now by me, seeing as you can reset the password if you have access to the email, who'd have thought that using a public mailing list as a contact email would let someone else change your password and close your account for you.) My apoligies for the extra emails created by doing this though, I just got fed up with it. Hopefully he'll have the good sense not to do it again.
