Subject: Including Email Address in the Reply in Mailing-list
Date: Fri, 02 Apr 2021 15:54:59 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <r50r8fblaw3cmm.fsf@38f9d365627a.ant.amazon.com> (raw)


Hello all,

I just noticed that some of us here, when replying, include the email of
the sender of the previous email in the response as part of body of the
email. This email address shows up in plain text in the mailing
list[1]. This is certainly done without any ill-intentions, but that
could cause the email address to receive quite a bit of spam if spammers
crawl these pages.

I suggest refraining from doing so, and instead use the name. Please let
me know what you think.

[1] this is an example: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2021-04/msg00042.html
