Lists: pgsql-general

It seems that for some time this list has been mirrored to Usenet without
changing the originating email addresses. Since Usenet is spammers Nirvana,
that one little act results in everyone that posts to the postgres lists
becoming SPAM fodder.

Can something not be changed in the mailinglist-Usnet gateway such that the
originating email addresses are either removed or scrambled so that posting
to the mailing list doesn't result in your email address being plastered all
over Usenet? People that intentionally post to Usenet generally don't use a
replyable email address.
