| directly quoted from your .sig  Obviously I've not replied to the list.

I went ahead and re-added the list, so others can read my thoughts on the
matter.

Reread the link: http://cygwin.com/acronyms/#PCYMTNQREAIYR

Pasting .sigs verbatim is fair game (ie. if I'm dumb enough to post my own
email address in my .sig, that's my masochism, and I deserve what I get).
~ And my email address is already out there, so I am personally not too
distraught about yet another instance of my address being exposed - after
all, I have some decent spam filters at work.

But pasting mailing list headers verbatim is not fair game.  It's the
principle - I strive to educate people who violate list netiquette, so
that they don't make the same mistake the next time they reply to someone
else who is more cautious about their .sig.
