Huh?

I use gmane to access over 20 lists & post to at least 5 of them on a
daily basis. Your email address' is very much available via the email
archives on this list, albeit they are marked "at", as in:
https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-users/2009-November/202477.html. But
any spam spider can parse that without issue.

Of course, dit's that haven't figured out how to configure their email
client so that it doesn't include the attribution email address in the
process (hint: 'Aart Koelewijn <aart at mtack.xs4all.nl> wrote:' - sorry
Aart, but the 'Wizard' has already posted your email address in the
response), certainly shouldn't be... never mind.
