I run a bunch of mailing lists myself. A number of users on my various
mailing lists archive the messages. And a couple have made these archives
available on their web pages. It doesn't bother me a bit that they do this.
I do not feel I own the information passing through the list, nor did I
inform people when they subscribed that they were not allowed to republish
the information obtained from the list. If you have public mailing lists
that you allow anybody to subscribe to and you do not explicitly prohibit
people from republishing the material, I don't think you can complain about
the service findmail.com is trying to build. They are just like any user
on your list, except on a larger scale.
