aha... cameron is right... I had checked and seen the current mail archives
are in fact cleaning out the email addresses, but now I see it's the old
archives that don't have them stripped. Greaaaat.
I will have a look at maybe writing some code to strip them out of the old
archives. I find it hard to believe that a spammer would go through the
archives just to get some 490 odd addresses, but maybe. It will take some
time for me to strip the email addresses out of the older archives. What's
the opinion - should I take them offline until they are stripped?

The older
archives can be found with a web search. Once
found, it is simple to harvest email addresses. I don't
think I got this one yet but then, they all look the same.
Yes, the addresses are definitely available from the web archive. Jay,
were you still looking into this?
