Each one is also uniquely set to match a set of criteria of my own choosing to indicate level of data, level of composite data, level of integrity, level of criticality, and a few other 'soft values'. This equates to each account being generated in a one-off fashion, so I'm not worried that my list account here will ever show up somewhere else in any other form. However, that doesn't mean that it doesn't concern me that the list is publishing these values back to the list participant(s) in plaintext. If I have to unsubscribe and then re-subscribe without a pass-phrase I can do that but just wanted to make the list admin(s) aware that it had occurred.
