It's been a while since *your* name + address has been spoofed :-)

I used to look forward, in a rather perverted kind of way, to see what 
manner of mischief Ted Harding was up to now -- at least, until outrage 
replaced bemusement.

Why doesn't the list do lookups for addy validation? It would be easy 
for those who post from a number of locations to subscribe from 
multiple addresses -- or is mailman in need of further options?
