Hi,
sorry for this unrelated mail.
I use a separate mail-address for every site/contact who wants my mail-address.
Just checked my spam-folder and what do I see? a mail from janisa@onertronics.com to my wireguard mail-address which I use only for this mailinglist.
So I guess janisa@onertronics.com is collecting mail-addresses here and then sending unwanted spam-mails.
If this user is on this list, I would recommend to remove this address.
proof: (on request I can also provide full mail headers)

It's nothing so complicated: the wireguard list is publicly archived
online, addresses included (with minor obfuscation).
An example:

Hi,
thank you for the for explanation.
Interesting, some months ago I wanted to lookup something in the archive and couldn't access it, so I assumed since then that the archive is not publicly available.
Was maybe some hickup or temporary issue...
Well, that explains it then..
Thanks and kind regards!

Hi,
wouldn't it be a consideration worth to hide or at least obfuscate mail addresses a bit more in mailman on this list here?
Mailman is able to obfuscate this better, see for example on lists.funkfeuer.at
Since I wrote the first time here about the "offer" I got, I'm getting more and more "spam" in the last weeks on the address I registered here on this list.
How do you work with this situation? Update/add rules in Mailfilter until the next mail comes through? Cat and mouse game? ;)
Kind regards,

lore.kernel.org archives the mailing list, which preserves full headers:
https://lore.kernel.org/wireguard/5d0d60df-ee8c-87ab-379b-31ed33675668@chil.at/raw
Anybody could subscribe and set up such a thing.
