Invalid sending addresses (email@somewhere.invalid) are a standard practice in Usenet, to combat bots scraping posts for email addresses (remember, Usenet predates basically all spam prevention tech). As there is a gateway between the mailing lists and Usenet, I *imagine* that the use of said invalid addresses are within the rules -- I mean, if they weren't, the maintainers wouldn't keep the two lists connected. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAEBCgAdFiEE3asj+xn6fYUcweBnbWVw5UznKGAFAmLw+rkACgkQbWVw5Uzn KGBT4A/8DR8GWlEgZhcoaLYTnQCfBv8YmykUxQ69/Xwf7o34S/ObtN0WTapgEBkB xamJHzFKENVeOoFwNgWkAaLSfOm2704DqO4vEJBZmCGrPtLTjHmpQuIcg2c+cjwz EEaYCuWmQZrviFS9ZeWX4FIMX9IlZ3Sgy7e/qHvdI5jeclw4oltYdRxVO3h9WylM BXn3Lvqntw+/5xV3vI/B2SODBTkB8a4D0vC64a3NwGqA3eUkyZrJYlVX8igubBwJ /sDLTy9EOK7wmokoXIHjj7KN+s5bC8idUN/V6DJiE6Z3vU0AOujKsw8jyQbndP9d 7da3gDLECMTHTFuKkj8kWC005aaWdM+GYzm1nofQC0jpINCP88IVce9curm11IQa AVWmxNBuGtLh8E3iE5WaydkgwZJXAll2cewOtzyJ0H8qeMwcqtL7hcKwdVPSzSYG JDqcbthDAzJg/PXcLjBHidXNZQ1BhyLw9ySzf+/7buiSsMdHuYZEohHXH4ybRMtL hlg6r09b5nDbKD7C9hVfL21+mogcX9t+LehsqiPLXssyMHRpTmGRzQ+CBySg5QaV gXshFJxRqvp9UtL+xw/wNL3wODsaVTU430qSKUI1ov7ClqcUXvEP5cbmKa9ufJ/J 8iDSbAP2B54pGyF9hfF0f8h267bZy13gWWqBqiFoCBZcVkaC/Jo= =6yDi -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- |_|O|_| |_|_|O| Github: https://github.com/dpurgert |O|O|O| PGP: DDAB 23FB 19FA 7D85 1CC1 E067 6D65 70E5 4CE7 2860 -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
