This is probably a dumb question. I've not thought to make the 
archives of the two listserv lists I manage private, because it 
hadn't dawned on me that those email addresses were available 
for harvesting.  I'll make them private now (presumably slamming 
this particular barn door long after the stalls are empty), but 
I don't understand Eric's statement:

We're running 1.8e.  It looks to me as though anybody going to 

http://listserv.unb.ca/archives/stlhe-l.html

could just harvest the email addresses.  Not so? What's 14.3?

And one other thing.  If my email address were harvested from a 
list archive, how would I know that and why would the list be 
affected?

Of course I'd prefer not to expose subscribers to that, but if 
it had already happened, how would I ever know?
