Hi Bill,
Sl�vek sets TDE policy, not I, but I do administer some non-TDE mailing lists. As to those I would be opposed to any attempt to hide the author of emails. Fighting spam is hard enough without everyone posting as the same fake address.
Also be advised that in addition to your self CC your actual email address appears numerous times in the headers of the email - for tracking and authentication purposes - and thus is still available for spammers to harvest
Well okay, I can see that. But it still shows up online in the mailing list archive, which has nothing to do with that.
I realize that I cannot entirely escape spammers, etc., and I can see your point about having to know our real email addresses in order to fight against them. All the same, I would like to keep that kind of stuff hidden as much as possible, at least a little harder to find.
Bill
