No, the reverse -- almost certainly a spamming operation.  I have
emailed the abuse address -- it looks to me like a legit mailing list
operator with an abusive user.

If you sonsider their archive at

http://server4.hostpoint.ch/pipermail/newsletter_blackmusic.ch/2002-November/date.html

it looks like they have only abusive (abused and then abusing) users.
Seeing that the addresses point back to a .uk ISP, I'd suspect that someone created this, subscribed a couple of mailing lists to it and is now sitting back having a good laugh.

I meant the operator of this particular mailing list is the abusive user. It looks like hostpoint.ch is probably a legit outfit; it's only this "blackmusic.ch" thing which seems to be crap.
