For me, they either have used cvs-commiters (unlikely), all my other subscriptions refer to local lists. It's more likely that they took the address out of a recent posting to de.comp.os.unix, where i've translated Jordan's SNAP announcement. I've put my freebsd.org address below, even though the reply-to and from clearly displayed my original address. They do a simple ``address collecting'' job, maybe even by grepping. I've charged them the costs they've caused me, for the commercial abuse... -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
