Your current "From" address says "John Datian".  The email in question
was from "Christine Datian".

I've forwarded this message to overseers@sourceware.org, as previously
suggested.  Your other messages apparently bounced due to html content.
You should have received a message to that effect.  To avoid that
bounced email in the future, you should be able to find a button or
option in your mailer which turns off the sending of html email.

Had you actually succeeded in sending this message to overseers, you
would have, once again, ended up archiving your original phone number
and your contact phone number on our web site.  Please be advised that
if you do not want this, you should not be including your phone number
in your email to public mailing lists.  The vast majority of public
mailing lists archive their messages on the web.

FYI, you also sent two other messages.  One was sent to Red Hat's Investor
Relations Manager.  I'm not sure why you wanted to contact him, but you
are probably pretty safe in that he won't be archiving your email on the
web.

Your other message was sent to the cygwin mailing list.  That also
probably bounced.  Lucky for you.  Had you succeeded, you would have
again caused your email to show up on our web site in the very mailing
list archives that you are currently complaining about.

I will reiterate that it is site policy not to edit email archived on
sources.redhat.com except to occasionally remove viruses from the email.
As is typical for mailing lists throughout the internet, messages sent
to our public mailing lists are archived on our web site.
