Well, at least the one that Chris Rebert quoted, <mailto:ldo(a)geek-central.gen.new_zealand> (in the 'From:' header). The point is, if he's upset about Chris quoting that, then he's probably unaware that he's posting it in plaintext himself. Cheers, - Alf

The complaint was not about quoting but about using in public. Chris sent his piece to three addresses. From his headers, redacted: Newsgroups: comp.lang.python To: "Lawrence D'Oliveiro" <ldo(a)geek-central.gen.[REDACTED]> Cc: python-list(a)python.org Can we stop importing red herrings now?

Oh, I didn't see that -- it's Bad Practice so I didn't look for it. Cheers, - Alf

No, this is hardly the first time that Lawrence has made such a wankerific threat: http://www.mail-archive.com/python-list%40python.org/msg245012.html I sympathise, because many years ago I lost an email address, made unusable by spam, after using it unobfuscated in Usenet. But I think that the spammers have mostly moved on these days. The pickings are much richer for hijacking people's address books in Hotmail, Facebook or Outlook, and the state of the art of anti-spam is better too. So I think that Lawrence needs to HTFU and stop making empty threats over something so trivial. -- Steven
