If you feel that someone has taken your private email address from this list
and is using it to abuse or harass you, then it would be appropriate to
forward those emails to the list moderator with your concerns/requests, etc.
Posting those emails for all the world to see is not appropriate. Each of us
is offended by different things and to different degrees, and if each of us
made a private crusade out of 'exposing' someone that we found offensive in
pmail it would cause things to get out of hand very quickly. It's not just a
matter of the privacy/confidentiality of pmail, it's also that many of us
(if I may say) probably don't care to be 'enlightened' about these things;
as for myself, I'm a big boy and I will deal with those folks in my fashion
when and if they bother me. You won't be hearing about it, either.
