Hello Marck D. Pearlstone !


On Thu, 31 Aug 2000 01:27:51 +0100 GMT your local time,
which was 31.08.2000, 02:27 (GMT+0200) where I live, you wrote:

This means: someone who is not member of the list can't harvest the e-mail
adresses by just looking into the archive because the "you are subscribed as..."
is changed !?

But what, if that person just harvests our adress out of our PGP-sigantures ?
This would explain why some received this message twice (both lists, signed
msgs), some only once (only one list, signed msgs) and some didn't get any
spam-message at all although member in both lists (no sigs or no key on server).

I don't know whether this is possible. I couldn't manage to verify a message in
the archive ("Found no PGP information in the clipboard") in the browsers
window. I switched to the source code view, highlighted the PGP-signed area and
tried it again: et voil� !

I admit, this is not very convenient to harvest e-mail adresses, but I'm
no computer specialist ;-). Maybe someone with more experience than me could
check that ??
