Hi
Today I received two marketing emails inviting me to the UCX Expo in
London from I company I was not aware having any business relationship
with.
After searching for that company name in my email archive, I stumbled
over a post from them in this mailing list.
Just out of curiosity, have others on this list also received this
invitation and in the past more marketing emails from the same source?
I guess posting to this list does not imply, I have given permission
to reader of this list to store my personal data in a marketing
database of their employer and use my data for marketing purposes,
right?
Mit freundlichen Grüssen

Hello Benoit,
posting to this list does not imply that your e-mail address is added to some databases
for commercial purposes.
Also, other people receive these messages from this marketing company or others after
posting to this list for some time. I'd guess these companies probably just collect
e-mail addresses from people posting here and then adding them to their lists. There are
also the archives where data can be collected with some effort.
There is not much that can be done from a mailing list point of view, besides restricting
the group people that are allowed to receive e-mails here. This is of course not feasible
for an open-source project.
You can address your complaints to the mentioned company of course.
Cheers,
Henning

Indeed, as Henning said, if you are prominent in certain forums, lead-generation companies
will of course harvest your name and email address for their own purposes, and without
your explicit consent, or that of anyone involved with the administration of Kamailio
resources.
It's just one of those things that happens, and there's not much you can do about
it.
