Yes, but if I do not send an email from netscape, the site should not be capable of seeing my configuration in my Netscape.ini file?! If it can do that, there is much more to worry about.
Indeed. But there is another possibility: Netscape could transmit the e-mail address from its configuration with every HTTP request. Not that this is a much more attractive alternative...
It must be something else. Otherwise instead of stating that my email address is caal_p3.telepac.pt, it should be capable of saying what my 'real' email address is. I have a feeling it is some type of WHOIS service.
