I am very interested in further comments on how a bot might gain access to the content of a private notebook, since you are not fully confident that this designation will keep them entirely out. Not that I want bots getting in, but rather because I want to take other steps to improve the privacy of the lists we host, if possible.

Restricting notebooks to subscribers only should reduce and possibly
eliminate the problem depending on how sophisticated the bots are.
Notebook= Yes,[...],Private
Making the mailing list confidential:
Confidential= Yes
might also help in that it would prevent the mailing list from being
listed on the main web archives page.
