A few people have privately inquired about this, so here is the official 
answer: we do not use the mailing list addresses for anything other then the 
mailing list. We do not give them away, sell them or use them otherwise, and 
we never used the mailing list for commercial advertising. This mailing list 
is offered strictly as a support forum for Pound.

For your information: Apsis is a Swiss company and operates under Swiss law. 
Switzerland has a very strict privacy law (similar to, but in some respects 
stronger than the EU directive: just ask our bankers), which would make it a 
Federal crime for us to misuse the mailing list addresses in any way.[...]

Hello ,

I  think  you  forgot to notice that the list is public. So any e-mail
that   appears   in  it  can  be  collected  by  spammers.  At  least
theoretically.

most mailing lists.

Hello ,

No difference.
I wrote that to people who say that the company sells the addresses.
