Question

New-style random email notifications

Has anyone else been receiving odd email notifications about random postings here and there?

I've appended one below and also tried attaching a screencap, although I don't expect that to work.

    I tried to send a "Report Abuse" with Private Information selected while suggesting a Host might be able to change the email addresses to somebody@example.com (example.com was created for such purposes). But it wouldn't go through. Just a non-descriptive error.

    If somebody with such powers reads this, then...

    John's gone in and removed the email addresses. Thanks.

    Thanks to all of you for your concern. Gmail insists on at least six characters for an email user name, so that's not a real

    address. As a diehard NNTP user, I rarely visit the forums and hadn't noticed the 'send as email' feature. An identity I use for

    testing just happens to be the first on the list of what look to be over 160,000 registered users, and I didn't even try to achieve

    that position.

    I do hope you and John have got more important things to do than spend time sanitizing posts

    Well, you already have an answer and are therefore no longer able to edit your original message, regardless of my replying again. Although this is not a reply, but a question.

    Are you aware that you have made public your email address?

    Hi Noel,

    That's not an email notification - that's an email sent to you by another user regarding a specific thread. (The option to do this is listed in the "Actions" box, and is called "Send as email").

    If you look at the screen shot, this is being sent to you by Barro-THX.

    Hope that helps.
