I think there might be an option to hide email addresses within the
group. No one in the group would be able to see anyone else's address,
and it would not be transferred to any replies. Would that be a good
idea? I'm not sure of what other problems that might cause.

>>>Dear Nascar-group posters,
>>>
>>>It's important that you know that Alan Jones, the administrator of the Yahoo Nascar group to which all of you post, has been re-posting your group messages, along with your email addresses, to the Usenet discussion group rec.autos.sport. nascar along with his own replies, seemingly in an effort to simulate your participation in that group. He has been doing so since June of this year.
>>>
>>>I am notifying you of this because it may explain an increase in spam email, since many spammers cull Usenet groups for valid email addresses. It is also unethical and inappropriate to post the email addresses of others without their knowledge or consent.

>>>If you have any doubts of my claim, a simple google search of your own email address should provide all the proof you need.

>>>Regards,
