I sent an e-mail to webmaster@php.net asking a question about the PHP
documentation a few days ago, and today when I searched on Google's groups
site for my e-mail address to make sure they had removed the articles I
requested, I found my e-mail in php.mirrors!
Why are e-mails to webmaster@php.net automatically posted to php.mirrors?
If this is going to be done, I think at least a notice should be posted on
the PHP site so that people know if they send an e-mail to that address,
it's going to become publicly archived, and is not going to be private
communication at all. I know you should not depend on e-mail for secure
communication, but I think people should at least be told that their e-mail
will be posted to a public newsgroup.
