            it was here
            https://forum.netgate.com/topic/61267/minor-issue-with-client-export-config-commands
            maybe you should clean that also
            I wanted to show that it is not impossible to find them
            also
            https://marc.info/?l=pfsense-discussion&r=1&w=2
            it's full of information about personal emails for example

                @johnpoz your email address is also exposed in your Redmine profile, in case you're wondering. You can set it to private in the settings.

                    @joolee thanks - but that is not the address tied to my forum account either.. But another great example on my part ;) showing that email can be harvested without a "breach".. ;)

                        @provels I would contact the Postal Service about their breach.. Since clearly that is the only explanation
