There is no breach, so the investigation is merely going to make the

Martin, perhaps the for sale tagging needs some help text on the list

can post occassional for sales, perhaps that should be clarified to 
include people who regularly attend meetings.

As noted before, the advertised unsubscribe facility works, and 
therefore this is not an issue.
