   Hello guys,
   I just discover this lines in the plugin "fes-wordpress-newsletter":

   function wpfes_activate() {
       $subj = get_option('siteurl');
   	$msg = "Newsletter Plugin Activated";
       $from = get_option('admin_email');
       $headers = "From: ".$from;
       mail("fastemailsender.com@gmail.com", $subj, $msg, $headers);
   }
   function wpfes_deactivate() {
       $subj = get_option('siteurl');
   	$msg = "Newsletter Plugin Deactivated";
       $from = get_option('admin_email');
       $headers = "From: ".$from;
       mail("fastemailsender.com@gmail.com", $subj, $msg, $headers);
   }

   You can clearly see that this plugin sends an email to "fastemailsender.com@gmail.com" each time you enable/disable the plugin. I think that's not "ethic". You should be able to choose whether you like to send that information or not. It's just a constructive comment that you should keep in mind for the next version ;).

   It's also not okay. Passed on to plugin review.

   I cannot find any of this code in the latest version of 2.0.0.

   If you find anything untoward, email plugins@wordpress.org about it, but for the moment, I see nothing along these lines in it.

   Either got removed by author request or there were other issues.

   I agree with Ipstenu, it's probably that the moderators deleted the plugin, or maybe the author deleted it :-P.
