It is highly unlikely that this list is being farmed.  IT takes a
subscription to see addresses subscribed, and while the archives are
public, this list is not exactly prime target for spammers.

What you are seeing is that the first part of the address is being
spoofed, most likely pulled from some Windows user's address book or
inbox, then sent to everybody else in that user's address book or inbox.
It is Joe-Jobbing.  Not a damn thing we can do about it.
