Greetings,
If I'm reading
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API:E-mail correctly,
there appear to be no (technical) restrictions preventing anybody
capable of creating a MediaWiki account from spamming every user with
a registered mailing address. Please tell me I'm wrong, and I'm not
going to wake up some day to an avalanche of Wikipedia e-mail about
Viagra and penis extensions in my inbox?
I'm asking because I'm about to add an email operation to my
MediaWiki::Gateway Ruby gem, and would prefer that this not be used
for evil.
Cheers,
-jani
