Something strange I noticed:

the archives may have the mails in masked format, but they still pop up in 
google.

Did a search for this mail address - which I have not used anywhere but on 
the midrange lists, and which didn't exist before October 19 - and it 
turned up one hit:

http://archive.midrange.com/code400-l/200410/msg00005.html

But when I went to that page, the address was not there.

David, are the archives first saved without the masking, and masked 
afterwards? Or do you maybe use some google-ism for the search function?

Because obviously something's slipping through the mazes.

Funnily enough, only one post seems to have slipped through...

Yeah ... I've got to fix that.  The email address masking was 
implemented a while ago, but not before some of the archive was created.

Sounds like a good project for next week.
