Well, I think it is bad, very bad, very very bad, that
blocked users are nearly unable to contact any one,
and usually not the banning sysop himself, since most
people do not give their email in clear.
For people hesitating to give their email in cleartext:
The email addy that I use for all Wikimedia matters
is <toby+wikipedia(a)math.ucr.edu>du>, which is given in cleartext
on both [[wp:en:Wikipedia:Administrators]] and [[wp:en:User:Toby Bartels]]
since, respectively, 3003 May 30 and 2002 July 22 (when I became an admin).
It also appears in all of my mailing list posts, for that matter.
To date, I have received a grand total of 1 spam email to this address.
