[rt.cpan.org #60678] 1. 2010 UN Report Highlights Falun Gong Persecution in China

I got this weird mail in RT queue for Games::Bingo.

First I thought it was spam, but then I read it and it struck me. Could somebody be reading these mails using RT as a proxy?

You locate some newsletter you want to receive, you provide it with the email address of a RT queue, which is public available, like all of the CPAN queues.

You sit back and wait and at some point the mail arrives and you can read it, without anybody tracing your email. Of course you there is the problem of providing the RT queue email to the subscription/sender, but I guess there are ways around that like using kiosk machines etc.

Or perhaps it is just spam? and I am being paranoid
