I just noticed at the bottom of each message in a dozen or so that I checked from the last few days, I see an ad entitled "Live Security Virtual Conference". I don't see these ads on messages in the sourceforge archive [1], but I do see them on the gmane mirror [2]. I also see the ad in a reply on the sourceforge archive [3].
I'm curious: Is this ad being put into outgoing messages by sourceforge, but not included in the archive (except when explicitly quoted in a reply)? Or is there some other source for the ad?
Thanks,
Jason

Sourceforge does need to make money somehow, right? It doesnt go into archives because most ads are time-sensitive.
