Sure, that's why you have to sanitize log files before posting them.
The obfuscation performed by the mailing list archive is not
sufficient to increase privacy (the local part is left in place, and
the domain can be inferred from logged MX hosts in many cases), and
what's worse, sending personally identifiable information to a few
hundred persons does hardly conform to any privacy regulations. 8-P
