Hi, I used to subscribe to ILUG-BOM couple of years ago and later stopped due to other interests. I used to use this email address to post my messages. I have noticed suddenly that this email address that never used to recieve spam is suddenly recieving lots of it.
One reason might be that the pages containing my old messages have now been mirrored on gnowledge.org and since indexed by google. These pages on gnowledge.org contain all the email addresses including mine in clear text. So I am suspecting spammers have gotten hold of them and lot of other active/inactive members have been recieving spam but ignoring it.
I request you to kindly look into this and disable printing out email address in clear text on gnowledge.org postings.
Thanks, Aditya Newalkar
