I didn't look at the source, just got all excited when Google found the email address. The actual source has Christopher Woods <christof@infinitus.<!--nospam-->co.uk in the quoted text which is fairly well obfuscated, although running it through a HTML -> text converter would recover it (which is what Google obviously is doing). The direct references are not recoverable via a HTML -> text converter: mailto:christof_at_infinitus.co.uk This reinforces my contention that the leakage is likely _not_ the list archives but rather 3rd parties. gvb Received on 2007-02-21 Page template was last modified "Tue Sep 7 00:00:02 2021" The Rockbox Crew -- Privacy Policy |
