They might as well spider usenet or web sites or buy a list of valid email addresses from someone or use addresses collected in previous similar "service". This will be very hard to prove as (with human's emails addresses) it's always possible that there is someone who likes him. And although someone here on the list guessed otherwise I don't think anyone will tell such as service an email address of a mailing list. People just aren't that dumb. As suggested before, I think it's always a good idea to rewrite email addresses on the web not to look like [EMAIL PROTECTED], but, of course, this won't last for very long as e.g. sf.net's "user AT host DOT tld" is quite easy to parse to if they know what they have to look for. > It's certainly a nuisance site, well suited to the drooling on themselves > masses, but it would be hard to call this email itself 'spam'.
