E-mail addresses are stolen from here :(

Post by tomas zahradnicky »

Anyone knows who's the creator of this site? I'd like to ask him to conceal e-mail addresses somehow since I'm getting spams on the address I've published here and the address its solely for this forum purpose.

Click on the "profile" link in the menu, select "No" to "Always show my email address".

Other than that, you can get spam even in a completely unused and unpublished email accounts.

Toni is correct -- use your profile settings to adjust how you want to be seen. Other than that, we (the moderators/admins) have no individual control on user accounts, so it's down to yourself to manage it effectively.

As said, spammers can get hold of e-mail addresses no matter what. The mailing here doens't show the address that is being mailed to, so it's protected like that. I guess not publishing it at all is a good start, though annoying for communicating, but then again they can simply send out bulk mails to a domain name or mail service, and whatever isn't bounced is a valid spamming address to be mailed again and sold on : (

I'm getting spam, not to my beowuuf@dmjump.net that is printed around, but sales and admin @dmjump...fun fun fun
