[lojban] What about obscuring addresses in the mailing-list archives?



coi. rodo .i mi'e jexom.

Let's go for this discussion...

Robin has created an archive for the two mailing-lists, which is a very good thing, thanks a lot Robin.

In these archives, e-mail addresses are not obscured (as they are in YahooGroups archives for example). I think it would be a good idea to do the same thing. Below are excerpts of a discussion I had with Robin. Robin prefers to leave the addresses in clear.

What do you think? I hope this won't start a too long thread...

  Jérôme.

Note that MHonArc has an
option to obscure e-mail addresses.

I didn't actually know that.  That annoys me,
though, because it means
people can't reply to mail in the archives.

PS: Back to a previous topic about obscuring the archive e-mail
addresses against spambots, I still think it would be a good idea,
since addresses are still received in clear in individual messages,
and since the goal of a mailing-list is not to send individual
messages but to share concerns with the list.
But it's your decision, dear web/post-master :-)

I prefer not, but if you want to ask the list, I don't mind.
