MP> About 10 seconds to extract all E-mail addresses from this list, MP> that's what it took. Perhaps we have a different view on labour MP> intesiveness :-) No, we have a different view on what constitutes a professional spammers address harvesting operation. I already *have* harvested the addresses as they come in. *I'm* not about to use them for spamming. If it is your intent to do so, I would be very surprised. The labour intensive part is not reaping the addresses in stored messages. It is applying for list membership, waiting for the confirm message back from the server, confirming, waiting for a few weeks while enough addresses come in worth having then reaping the benefits of harvesting. It isn't going to happen! It is not very responsible of you to suggest it might. Either you're being humorous or you're not understanding what you are suggesting yourself. Either way, I am attempting to make it clear to the membership that they are not in danger of having their addresses harvested by any spammer by posting to the list - unless they show their email address in the body of their posting. - -- Cheers -- .\\arck D Pearlstone -- List moderator TB! v1.63 Beta/7 on Windows 2000 5.0.2195 Service Pack 2 ' -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.1rc1-nr1 (Windows 2000) iD8DBQE+UqqEOeQkq5KdzaARAldNAJ0aIty2idL76aYJOA/RI+GCrZRDoACfRvTB HlGVqhqCUskrN6M9F1atMD4= =aHL6 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ________________________________________________ Current version is 1.62 | "Using TBUDL" information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
