This is not entirely true.  Court mail, for some reason unknown to me is
*NOT* forwarded even if you leave the Post Office a forwarding address.
I speak from experience here, it almost got me in a whole lot of trouble,

I agree that publishing #1 bozo's home phone number without his permission
was the wrong thing to do.  Two wrongs still don't make a right.
