I'm planning to add a new feature to Mail-archive.com, which allows
replies to messages, over email, without risking exposing to spambot
address harvesters. The mailto: URL is simply brokered by a POST CGI
script, which I think will very safe. Also, this will allow humans
to use their default mail user agent, which is a definite plus.

The new feature is active for all messages under
http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]. After some testing and
hopefully feedback, I'll make it available for every list.

So.... comments? suggestions? I know some people have wanted this
for a _long_ time.

Thanks,
Jeff

PS Neither lynx 2.8.1pre.9 or Netscape Communicator 4.08 on Linux seem
to support getting message ID's from mailto: URLs. That's unfortunate,
since such functionality is specifically mentioned in RFC 2368. Maybe
other user agents do better.
