I know that you mention that you got permission to publish the list but I'm
not sure it was good idea to put peoples' email addresses on it. One sure
way to attract spam is to publish your email address on newsgroups.

Spammers have programmes which download postings from newsgroups and strip
out the email addresses. I'm not sure that the people who gave permission
necessarily understood the consequences of so doing.

visit http://www.sengir.demon.co.uk/spam_sites.html for some background info
about this.

cheers

Fair point. It would suffice to munge the addresses (i.e. make them
unrecognisable to programs looking for telltale @ signs etc.), rather
like this:
