This is the message as the crawl holds it, before anything here touched it. What the conversation shows has been through ingest: transfer encodings decoded, attachments dropped, quote markers repaired, and the archiver’s ? resolved into quotation marks and dashes. Those repairs are judgements and some of them are wrong, which is what this page is for. Email addresses are obscured here as they are everywhere else on the site, so it is before our repairs rather than byte for byte.

This is probably obvious to most people, but it's worth saying anyway:
anyone who has that email address must NEVER EVER mention it on the list,
because it will be "harvested" and spammed to hell and back.

An unusually fierce

P.S. Also obvious, but worth saying for courtesy's sake, is that this
warning isn't directed at Stephen, Christopher, or any other individual.
It's entirely pre-emptive.
