Hi all,
As again I did see clearly readable e-mail addresses in bulletins, I do
want to warn that this, also on Packet (!), is not wise to because of
spambots reading these addresses......
Obviously there should not be any spambot having the posibility to read
e-mail addresses in Packet bulletins, after all, these bulletins are
within the Amateur Radio community....
Unfortunately not!
As too many 'sysops' have decided that these bulletins are SO important
for the world outside of Amateur Radio to be read, they are posting these
bulletins on the Internet readable for EVERYONE without having to connect
to and login to a BBS......
So, in a few days you will be able to read this bulletin on at least ten
different pages on the net.... Yep, this one and the same bulletin.....
I think this is not only not done, as it is someone in a group of people
that write to each other posting the messages on the Internet, where I
think everyone would be outraged, but it also is a sort of spamming the
Internet with obviously a huge redundance for these bulletins on the net..
So, I suggest to not write e-mail addresses in bulletins as
name@domain.tld, but in ways like name at domain dot tld, or
name _at_ domain.tld etc...
Maybe your ISP will run a good spamfilter, but you should not willingly
put that spamfilter to the test..
Rgs, 73, 33, Angela
