However mail-archive.com hides the emails addresses while the Mailman archives show them explicitly (in the "user at domain" format). Also, mail-archive.com has been active for so long that I think they would be exposed by now, if they were selling email addresses. If the website team has the man power right now to provide that functionality it'd be very nice. If there already is something like that, I admit I didn't bother to look too much for it as I was also thinking that it'd be good to have the emails archived somewhere else for safety and history preservation. -- Giovanni
