Someone is confused. It could be me.
A link to a post on photo.net showed a "racy" reply with Mafud's email
address. Because it *was* his email address, it was assumed that he must
have posted it to photo.net. I made a post to photo.net myself to see if
in fact they authenticate posts. They don't, therefore I said the post
on photo.net might have been bogus.
The post in question is on a message board, not a mailing list.
I'm not sure where anyone said posts to pdml might have been bogus.
