I've got a list archived there.

The folks at ListQuest do take some care to foil address harvesters...

1) There are NO index pages at all, not by date, subject or author.
   All access to individual archived messages is via a search engine.

2) On the pages were search results are returned and on the pages
   where individual messages are the name and address parts of the
   From: line are replaced with GIFs.

None of my subscribers (nor I) have noticed any appreciable increase
in spammage since I began archiving there.

P.S. There are other place that will archive your list for "free", I
     have my list archived with 4 different services. You can check
     out the differences by following the links below:
