There's no reason the sender address needs to go to the mailing list or be visable on the web, is there? That is, the sender address could be stored in the PR database, visable only to those who can change the status of a PR (I assume they have some password protected web/e-mail interface). When forwarded to a mailing list it could come from pr-remailer@freebsd.org or something. While spam is a fact of life, in some cases we need to reevaluate plastering an e-mail address everywhere just because we can. --=20 Leo Bicknell - bicknell@ufp.org - CCIE 3440 PGP keys at http://www.ufp.org/~bicknell/ Read TMBG List - tmbg-list-request@tmbg.org, www.tmbg.org --LQksG6bCIzRHxTLp Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.1 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQFAF9RRNh6mMG5yMTYRAlmTAJ9fc4cbrRieoWaSNy4zgAzb7cnvIgCfW6KB AZLIxc0htdr6dOC58QPwHM8= =ysUU -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --LQksG6bCIzRHxTLp--
