Re: Are the programming list archives private?

Does this just hide the EMail address within the message's content, or is the whole message not stored in the archives?
NO, I haven't gotten around to exploring Freelists in intimate detail. *grin*

I disagree. I think the archiving of this list is a very useful feature. In the past I've dug up some old nugget of information or other this way and would strongly oppose this changing. This is a public list; do not post anything you would be uncomfortable with being in the public eye.

Hi all,
Quick question I'm hoping someone on this list might be able to answer. I used Google to search for an FTP server, and I came across some information regarding flash FTP, and since I already use this app, I clicked on the following link just out of curiosity: http://www.freelists.org/archives/programmingblind/10-2007/msg00993.html I was freaked out when I discovered that the message Google found was a message I posted on this list last October. I'm wondering if I can do anything on my end to prevent my replies from being found when someone conducts a Google search. Since I found my own post from some 9 months ago, I think its pretty safe to assume all of our posts are 100% public, correct? Can we change this setting for this list?--if the bulk of us are interested of course. 

Thanks,

The very internet naked Matthew
