Greetings!

I'v just dicovered that all FreeBSD mail archives are absolutely free
to access from WWW. These letters contain real e-mail addresses, so
they can be easily captured by spam robots and then used to send ads.
That's not good at all, I think. So I recommend to store e-mails in
slightly crypted way, like, for example,

user [at] subdomain [dot] domain

Our russian webmasters often use such tricks and achived a great
success in the battles with spamers.

Good luck.

Best regards, DMVN.
