I'm sorry for this off-topic, but I would suggest to configure the
mailman of these lists with "Show member addrs so they're not directly
recognisable as email addrs?" (Privacy Options) set to Yes.

The reason is very clear, actually the archives which are accessible by
web contain the e-mails, for example:

http://lists.ximian.com/archives/public/monodevelop-list/2004-February/0002=
46.html

Spammers using web scanners can find those e-mails as you know. If we
activate the option mentioned above we would get something like:

https://listas.hispalinux.es/pipermail/gplurv/2004-February/000930.html

Not only the headers will be obscured, the mail addresses written in the
body of the messages will be too.

I think it is important for fighting against spam. What do you think
about this idea?

Sergio.
