[clue] Webserver's purpose

[Brian Gibson]

Hence, you use an email address that's already public (or can be thrown away) 
with a service that has a decent spam filter and log in using a throwaway 
password.  Trust no one.  Even the clue server admins. :-P

If we want to secure people's names and email addresses, we need to do a better 
job than what we have now.  You can get everyone's info with some screen 
scraping off of the mailman archives.  I just looked from a clean cookie-less 
browser without authenticating.

And shawn at redmop.com doesn't even begin to cover it.

Brian you make an excellent point.  But for me storing other people's names, 
email addresses and passwords is worth the VPS for me.
