IMHO, am afraid we shall be creating a mob mentality instead.
Hmm... interesting point, food for thought. Though I think mob-mentality will always happen, with or without obscured email-addresses (exhibit A: the poor chap from KDN). I agree that verifying, and standing behind, one's identity is crucial. But how can this be achieved in a public mailing-list context? I'm curious: for those who don't actively participate on the list, what hinders them? (I'm assuming list membership implies interest in the topics being discussed). saidi On Wed, Nov 4, 2009 at 11:06 AM, Michuki Mwangi <michuki@swiftkenya.com>wrote:

Along the lines of Michuki's suggestions:
- Is there a way for list admins to hide, obscure or mangle the sender's email address? This may solve the official/non-official email issue.

We definitely need more involvement on the list, anything to encourage that is welcome.
I fully agree.
Your tech future is being decided by others, it's time to wake up and smell the (digital) coffee. Get involved and stake a claim to your future.
Without a mask i hope :).
Cheers,
