Member Feedback Wanted: Remove email address of posters?

NTDEV
1

I apologize for the semi-off-topic post, but we need feedback from the
membership. If you don’t care about email addresses in posts, hit
delete now.

Note that when you joined NTDEV, you specified your email address as
well as a textual “full name” – Presently, these are both used to
identify you when email is distributed by the list.

After some checking, it seems that we can substitute the list’s email
addresses for the poster’s email address and leave the poster’s “full
name”. I’ve enabled this feature for this message (I think)… the
envelope sender of this message should read “xxxxx@lists.osr.com” along
with my full name.

This change, while significant, would ensure poster’s email addresses
are not distributed via email.

This would NOT affect posting: You’d still have to post email to the
list from the exact email account you joined with.

Also, note that users who access the list via NNTP *would* be able to
see poster’s email addresses embedded in NNTP message headers. Take a
look at this email via NNTP to see what it’s like.

Postings viewed via the web interface will continue to have the part of
their email addresses to the left of the “@” sign changed to “xxxxx”.

Finally, note that there are a FEW members (all who joined before 2003)
who joined without specifying “full names” – These would have their
email addresses provided in place of the “full name” and they could
change this quite easily by logging into OSR Online and specifying a
full name.

What do you think? Worthwhile, not worth it, don’t care??

We’d like to receive your feedback (or questions) directly (to
xxxxx@osr.com) as opposed to further spamming everyone on the
list.

Thanks,

Peter

I’ve now received a bunch of email replies that – in fact – the
substitution we did does not work. Or, rather, it DOES work… and puts the
RECEIVER’s “full name” as that of the sender.

Er, no: It said

and outlook displayed the message as if it was from me. My spam filter promptly binned it.

> What do you think? Worthwhile, not worth it, don’t care??

Assuming that the above is some kind of glitch, I’d say Worthwhile (ish).

I’ve had the same email address for nearly 20 years. And, like you, I get
a lot of spam that is (mostly) thrown away by a robot. For me it’s too late.
For newer email addresses it may be worth it.

If it really was your intention to have mail from the list appearing on my machine
as if I’d sent it, I’d say “No thank you”. Actually, I’d probably be less polite :slight_smile:

Personally? “If it aint fixed dont broke it” (or something like that
)

As Peter said there arent a whole lot of complaints. This list isnt a
big source of spam, and less so than it used to be judging by the drop
in spam to “leave-ntdev-xxx@”.

On the plus side, I like knowing the domain of the poster and when I see
a particularly insightful or notable reply I end up checking out their
web site. The domain sometimes helps to put a post in context. I think
its a useful feature. I also have a chance to send the poster an
off-line email directly without going through the email list. I think
this keeps the noise level down.

On the minus side, most of the ‘bad’ I associate with the 'net comes
from being anonymous. Maybe NTDEV has managed to stay professional and
topical all this time because its a small boutique, or due to the
subject matter, or something else. Or maybe its because there isnt any
anonymity. I think thats at least some of it and I would be pretty
hesitant to mess with it.

While you are back at the drawing board, I think having email addresses
available for sideband communication is useful, although obviously if
desired posters can simply put their email in their signature.

Also knowing that xxxxx@hotmail.com is posting from a dubious
account name with a questionable email server is good visual feedback
regarding who is posting.

Spam filters seem to work for me.

For some reason this message that I DIDN’T SEND is attributed to me. I don’t know if Peter got something wrong or someone has hacked the listserv; I’ll assume Peter didn’t get quite the effect he was trying for in the email attibution.

My position is that on reasonably well-moderated small membership lists (such as this one) it doesn’t really matter whether the email address is obscured or not. In fact it is convenient if it is not obscured, so you can easily send a private message to someone if you want to. Thus, in this specific case, I’d be slightly negative on removing the email addresses; but I’m not going to kick and scream if someone really wants to do it. (Just DON’T end up sending me all list posts attributed to ME. They will all end up in the spam bucket.)

On a larger list or one that is poorly moderated I agree that stripping email addresses is a Good Thing.

It is also a good idea to strip email addresses from the public archives, while leaving them in the actual messages. I don’t know if that would be feasible in this case.

I’ve always gotten by with the expedient of not using my real email
address for posts to the list. I think I might have had to get Scott to
add my fake address to the subscriber list or something, though, and
that doesn’t scale *at all*.

Oops, just noticed that somewhere along the line my .sig file lost the
explanation for that… sigh…

Well, that got my attention! Actually what happened was it showed up in my
email as being from me.

My slight preference is that email addresses be shown, but it’s a very
slight preference. As long as I can identify who things are from I’ll be
happy. There are some folks posting to this list who’s output I always read,
even if I don’t have a question in that particular problem domain.

This is what I did which my previous e-mail; I subcribed my real e-mail and also subcribed fake e-mail with “nomail” option. I used fake e-mail for posting so neither OOF nor spam could be delivered. The fake e-mail had simply .nospam extension so humans could reply privately (and they did, at least those intelligent enough to remove the suffix and why should I bother with others? :slight_smile:

Such a solution is still possible but has several drawbacks:

  • it is necessary to convince listserv to subscribe fake e-mail. Not impossible (at least about 5 years before wasn’t) but I guess designated list slave wouldn’t like if many people are trying it. The other option is to convince list slave as Ray did but I guess it’d suffer from the same problem :slight_smile:

  • it is necessary to convince own IT manager to be able to use fake e-mail for sending which may involve mailserver or even firewall configuration change. Not problem for individuals but can be problem for large companies if one doesn’t want to telnet to port 25 from internet cafe :slight_smile:

  • it is necessary to remember to change sender address always when posting to the list. There can be a smart mailer which can do it automatically but the one I use can’t do even much simpler things.

With new e-mail address I decided to not did it again and instead watch when I receive the first spam. It took more than 2 years which leads me to believe OSR lists aren’t the source of it.

Anyway, all above drawbacks can be removed if sender address is obfuscated at server side. Even if spam is no problem, it’d remove OOF nonsense. It always amazes me how many careless people are writing drivers :wink:

I’ve been trying to resist the urge to open my big mouth, however, I’ve
lost the battle…

For starters, apparently whoever started this thread along with the
previous one was complaining
about spam. I’ve never received ANY spam due too any OSR list
(traditional spam that is).

Second, any spammer would be a damn fool to bother such a list that has
SO MANY technically
sophisticated individuals on it. That would be like committing suicide!
That reminds me of a local
incident about two years ago; some moron thought it would be a good idea
to rob one of the local
gun stores, 47 shots/wounds latter, turns out it was a bad idea… :slight_smile:

I must agree with an earlier poster, seeing the domain in which a
response came from is always
nice. I’ve always placed a lot more credence upon a response that came
from osr.com, microsoft.com,
hollistech.com, storagecraft.com or ect.

To Peter and the rest of the OSR folks: please don’t change how the list
works because of a lone
whiny baby… If he values his privacy sooooo much, he shouldn’t be
online because here in the
cyber world, nothing is private!
