I understand your position very good: If we want to use the archives 
(will be improved, I'm sure), it doesn't make much sense to hinder 
people form replying directly.

On the other hand: This question has been raised on the OOo mailing 
lists every now and then, leading to annoyance and people leaving the 
community. This can't be avoided by adding another phrase to the 
subscribe link or in the subscription autoresponder - people act before 
they read (if they read at all).

So I'm thinking about an option to show the mail addresses only if you 
are logged in. Don't know if this is hard to achieve.

But even if SPAMMODE is nothing you really can believe on, it shows that 
we care for these fears (and it might reduce SPAM to some - unmeasurable 
- degree).

This could only be a possibility, if it can be achieved without much 
work - I think we have much more important tasks at the moment.

Best regards

Bernhard
