I'll second this... As someone who has made the mistake of putting personal reponses up on the list, I will say it is very easy to do since most email programs "hide" the headers that would allow you to see exactly where from and how the email got to you. This is probably going to be an ongoing problem since most software companies are making their software "non-techie" friendly; and the newbies out there could care less and won't know how to differentiate between what's public and what's private.
