Hello Scott, Thanks for the answer. I'm afraid I was not specific enough.
I'm aware of the option of setting the archives access to private. However, I'd like to keep it public - just to please honest users :) The second option you mention obfuscates email addresses only in the "list members" page - which, in my setup, is only available for the list admin. Maybe this spam prevention request should be added to the wishlist? Thanks. Janos B. > On Monday 08 July 2002 03:06 am, Bogardi Janos wrote: > > Web-based archives of postings are great.
