If you google for roomity you will see that they have targeted pretty =
much
every mailing list on the planet.
The IP of mail.roomity.com is already indexed on Spamcop (since =
yesterday).
My mail server cross checks against several spam and open relay =
databases
before delivering mail so this doesn't really bother me, they can send =
me
Spam all day long for all I care, I'll never see it.
But by posting to a mailing list your address is pretty much public =
anyway,
indexed or not. Don't let the fact that you're not listed as a sender =
give
you a false sense of security.
What does bother me is the fact that someone can simply take this list's
contents and index it. How do they do it, by subscribing? By accessing =
the
archives?=20
I have an alternative mailing list on standby should we have to take =
such
drastic measures....
