If you go to http://www.mailbase.ac.uk/names/data-protection/ you can see all the lists members' addresses, as the list owner hasn't set the 'review' option to 'off'. Many other mailbase subscriber addresses can be obtained in this way, which is why it is recommended that list owners turn this option off. Showing the addresses in this way is probably a DP no-no anyway, unless of course members are informed of this when they join!
