I accidentally sent a message from my normal account (NOT [EMAIL PROTECTED]), and to my horror it actually appeared on the list, exposing my private e-mail address to spammers via the online archive. =sigh=
It appears that the updated mailing list software is set to accept messages from people who are not subscribed to the list. Could you folks PLEASE fix this to reflect the previous behaviour (ignore the message completely), or better yet, bounce the message, explaining that you must be subscribed to post (I have been mystified why some of my posts never appeared in the past, until I realized I'd used the wrong account). As long as Evolution doesn't allow users to specify which account to associate with a specific folder or addressee, imperfect people like me are going to occasionally forget to set the From address properly before sending a message. I realized right after sending that last post that I'd neglected to select the correct account, so I fixed it and re-sent the post. In any case, allowing non-subscribers to post messages is an invitation to spam on the list itself. I apologize for the double post and this off-topic message.
