Agreed....it also means that a poster needs to use a valid email
address....I guess if they make a contraversial post with a fake address
then the post would just remain removed - and so it should be.

Damn. I hadn't thought about that one. However,...

I use an invalid email address to post. It's obvious to any individual
what they need to do to send me email, but is that something we ought to
be
asking moderators to do? I don't know the answer. I do know that if I
can't use a munged (I think that's the term) email addy when posting
online to minimize spam in my inbox, then I'm going to have to rethink
posting online, and I'd rather not do that.

Not a problem, I think. If every email has to be valid (if they want
moderated posts returned) the software should be able to mung the email
addresses.
