Well, if they were only doing it once, then it wouldn't matter. If
they were not established accounts, we could also look into
hardening our subscription process a bit. Since they appear to
not be newly minted accounts, it's a moot point.

Of course, as usual, all of this talk is pretty pointless as the
main person who should be involved here, Marc, is not subscribed
to -www, last I heard. :(
