Re: Sudden spam to this email address

[Thomas Cameron]

I don't post terribly frequently, but I certaibly do post to this list (and 
many others).  Ditto for Usenet.  No throw-away addresses for me.

I use SpamAssassin with Pyzor, Razor, DCC, and network checks, ClamAV, and 
greylisting.

I can remember one spam message that made it into my Inbox this year.  One.
I can't shout from the roof tops loudly or often enough:  "SpamAssassin 
works!"  :-)

Yep, I just found the culprit.
The below 2 websites volunteer SA users-list email addresses for all the
world to harvest. I found my email address in Google from posting here on
this list.
aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/ Mail/Message/spamassassin-users
spamassassin.apache.org/mail/users
Be warned, if you post to this list use a throw-away email address unless
you are looking to have a good test account for SA. :-)

Does posting to this list open me up to dweebs harvesting email addresses?
I'm suddenly getting BS spams to this email address, and they have to be
coming from one of two sources. This list being one of the options.
Thanks.
