i disagree ... it's not a "one man problem"

i created this e-mail address specifically only for posting-receiving LD
mail.

within a month of creating this account and posting to LD, i had already
started getting spam ... not too many, but i have had several other similar
accounts that have been spam-free for years.

it's no doubt the bots & spiders lifting e-mail addresses from the LD
mailing list archive.

i brought this up with kim and got no response ... he provides a great
resource with LD, but unfortunately the administrative burdens and issues
aren't always his first priority, so i guess i'll live with the spam ...
it's worth it, but it would be nice to have the mailing list archive
obfuscate e-mail addresses

btw, i actually don't mind the gig announcements ... they are guaranteed to
be from subscribers and it's good to see people are gigging.

HTML e-mails from the list annoy me more!
