Some BBSs use a 'Send Member a Message' link so not to publish ppls addresses. The CGI page sends it on your behalf and, if the recipient wants, can reply to your provided email address. A little more overhead but a bit more secure. This BBS already auto-emails ppls on posts to subscribed links. Wouldn't be much more to add a link to send the poster a message. The possibility of being used as an anonymous spam relay does come up tho.

Then again, if you don't want your address out there, don't put a valid one. I was never asked to validate my email address. One could use me@here.com and not have to worry abotu it.

This is the best kayak forum I've seen on the 'net. I realy hope this little bump in the road doesn't effect it.

Let's get back to building. I got a lot of strips to cut :)
