                   Maybe you didn't know, but this is not only a
                   Message-ID but also a valid E-Mail address. One
                   that I do read.

They can send me a mail and I will put them on the same list with
you, Thomas, Januk and Miguel.

Januk wrote that this is not true. But look at the source code of
Januk's first link:

This is for the "secure" reply button on every archive page. If I
was an address harvester I would write a small script that extracted
the mail addresses from there. Search patterns are much easier...
Two regular expressions and *tratra*: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I needed 10 minutes to combine a wget, a grep and 3 seds to get a
beautiful list of E-Mail addresses. And I am really no expert in
shell scripting...

I don't think that Gerd needed your help in this case.

EOD, please.
