It appears that the TDATA-L archives were recently grazed for e-mail addresses, which were used for sending spam. Up to this time
the archives have been publicly available. To make it more difficult for a spammer to use the archives like this again, I've changed
the settings for the archives. They can now only be accessed by TDATA-L subscribers.
This isn't a perfect answer, but it does make it more difficult for the typical spammer. In the future, if you believe somebody
has used the TDATA-L list to target you for spam, please forward the spam to me (with headers, if you have them). If I can verify
the misuse of the TDATA-L list, then that person will be removed from the list.
If you know of somebody who has been using the archives, but hasn't subscribed, could you let them know what has happened? They
can regain the archives by subscribing to the TDATA-L list.
