Do you see some other e-mail address (or hostname / IP address) in the header lines of the e-mail? Or do you see the URL where the "click here" is pointing to (better do not click on them)?
Ian had answered privately to me with the details. According to it, this e-mail tries to trick the reader into clicking a link (if the image is not visible, which would be loaded from a remote URL) to probably verify the e-mail address of the receiver. Luckily the URLs are (probably wrongfully) pointing to click.freebsd.org which does not exists. The e-mail use a faked sender address which is set to [email protected], but according to the header lines the e-mail was not sent from a system belonging to the FreeBSD project.
I have sent an e-mail with all the details to the admins of the mailing list, as I suspect we have a rouge subscriber in the list.
