Stop putting your correct email address in your posts.  You can set up
a newsgroup account using a fake email address.


He did not post in a newsgroup, he post thru
support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org  SO he need to furnish his real
address; NO ?


Then spammers are harvesting email addresses from there and he should 
start using newsgroups instead, with a fake email address.

But the point is that he need not go through the list. He can subscribe
to the newsgroup as you and I have done and munge his address to defeat
the spambots.

But now that they've got his address, he can look forward to a steady
stream of spam as they sell it to each other.

One can report spammers to an antispam organization and get most of them 
shut down.

No, they aren't.  He just wants to stop receiving list e-mails.

The point is everyone that signs up for the mailing list has the 
information to *Unsubscribe* on the sign up page. All they need to do is 
scroll down and read the whole damn page before clicking the *Subscribe* 
button. Then bookmark it for future reference.


I received a link to a member options page for both Mozilla mailing 
lists that I subscribe to, which also include an *Unsubscribe* section. 
I bookmarked both of those pages.


George has probably successfully unsubscribed from the list and we are 
spamming it for who knows how many other subscribers.


Apologies to them.

Most likely, George was complaining about his overabundance of email 
messages from the list, and not true spam. This is a frequent situation 
when people don't know - or remember - how to unsubscribe from it.

He even asked "how I can unsubscribe in order to prevent all the e-mails." 
That info is in every message he gets:
