Surely this is the best way to motivate people.  :-)

Intererestingly, he seems to be right about the archives for 1999.  It 
looks like the archives for January - August 1999 contain unmangled 
email addresses in the headers.  Newer as well as older archives are fine.

Of course, after Mr. gram's outburst, it's unlikely that anyone will 
feel like fixing this.  But in the unlikely case that someone does, 
please take the time to type to identify the email address in question, 
and make sure that one *doesn't* get fixed.  >:-)
