Noticed the web archives are mangling 'string@string' type constructs found in the body of posts. This harms and alters whatever the author was saying, particularly for code-like constructs. Any spammers will simply subscribe to the list and parse out all such address-like things as they are posted in real time. So please disable this misguided mangling. Thanks. foo@example.com

I'm fairly certain the source material for the archives aren't mangled, so upon turning off the relevant setting the original appearance of messages will be restored. Before I throw the switch, any thoughts on why we might not want to make this change? -=rsw
