IIRC, gmane intercepts a first-time post to a newsgroup->mailing list using a mangled email that it gets and later forwards on your behalf when you prove that you're human. Or something like that. The weird thing is that it did that for a personal email -- maybe someone posted a reply with CCs, where the usual thing is to have only newsgroups? -- ((lambda (x) (x x)) (lambda (x) (x x))) Eli Barzilay: http://barzilay.org/ Maze is Life!
