I bet you get two emails on this response. The solution should be only getting one via "TechNet [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Glidden, Kevin". This is how your email came in to me. -----Original Message----- From: TechNet [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Glidden, Kevin Sent: Thursday, July 09, 2009 9:28 AM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: [TN] membership limitations to Technet While I highly value the all-inclusive nature of this forum, it is perhaps an exploitable feature as well. I continuously receive emails from people offering services with whom I have had no previous interactions, and I often assume (perhaps incorrectly?) that our contact information and email addresses are being mined from the forum by those who join simply to generate contact lists. Would limiting Technet membership to those from domains whose companies are IPC members, or requiring entering of an IPC membership number to register destroy the all-inclusive nature, or improve the quality? Does anyone else share these observations? Thoughts? So, your email address is not revealed by your email. However, when I click "respond to all", it appears in my email "To" block. I would think fixing this problem would be pretty straight forward, but I would not have any idea how to do so.

BUT . . . I also feel this is a minor inconvenience for the wealth of knowledge obtained from this incomparable industry forum. To all that contribute & share your knowledge & humor THANK YOU!!! -----Original Message----- From: TechNet [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Stadem, Richard D. Sent: Thursday, July 09, 2009 7:32 AM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Re: [TN] membership limitations to Technet I totally agree. However, many smaller companies and individuals (contractors, etc.) cannot always maintain membership to IPC. But I think there should be a membership screening process to weed out those undesirables. I do not think attempting to manage access by memberships is practical. Also, there are a large number of engineers who work for companies that support the military, and we have a security concern with the forum being able to be accessed by anyone. -----Original Message----- From: TechNet [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Glidden, Kevin Sent: Thursday, July 09, 2009 9:28 AM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: [TN] membership limitations to Technet While I highly value the all-inclusive nature of this forum, it is perhaps an exploitable feature as well.
