Guest yourskarthikeyan@gmail.com Posted February 21, 2009 Posted February 21, 2009 Hi, I have sent a mail to google group. Is it possible to find out individual email addresses in that group.? Note: I am not a member of that google group Quote
Guest FromTheRafters Posted February 21, 2009 Posted February 21, 2009 By "mail" do you mean a "post" through a google groups interface to usenet? Depends, yours would be easy whereas mine would be more difficult. Some may be impossible. Posting with a real address is frowned upon because it feeds the worms (and the spammers). My real e-mail address would not be harvested from the headers of my post nor from the body of a reply to my post as yours (if that is real) appears to avail below. <yourskarthikeyan@gmail.com> wrote in message news:70d19fb3-61fd-4be5-95a4-5e16828c1e5b@s38g2000prg.googlegroups.com...<span style="color:blue"> > Hi, > > I have sent a mail to google group.

You submit posts to them. E-mail uses a completely different communications protocol. <span style="color:blue"> > Is it possible to find out individual email addresses in that group.?</span> Did you look at their post to see if they gave out an e-mail address? Does it look like a valid e-mail address? Or is it a bogus one? Or did they munge it? No one can tell without seeing an exhibit of a particular post to which you refer but don't mention. <span style="color:blue"> > Note: I am not a member of that google group</span> There are private and public Google Groups. Private Google Groups are known only to Google's server. They are not distributed via NNTP (Network News Transfer Protocol) to other newsgroups servers. They are more like forums. Public Google Groups are peered from and to other NNTP servers and are part of Usenet (aka newsgroups). Since you didn't identify "that Google Group", no one knows which one you are asking about. If it is a private Google Group, you might have to ask permission to join it. Quote
