Public mailing lists having a searchable public archive present the poster's 
email address to the public (not only to the list subscribers), so they are, 
like any websites, a target for email collecting software.

Searching your email in google groups:
   Results 1 - 4 of 4  for [EMAIL PROTECTED]  (0.12 seconds)
(this only shows that your email is archived, not how addresses are collected, 
of course)

In short: That's absolutely normal, don't suspect the list subscribers to be 
spammers :-)

Hope this helps

Dani
