Is anyone else seeing requests to their mailman install that look
something like this:

What log is that from?  I don't recognize the format.

He means that "midrange-l" is the name of an active list at his site,
I'm pretty sure.

Exactly correct.

host(1) says the source or the request is AWS. :-/

None of this explains why the URL is targeting David's Mailman, unless
it's the Mailman host that is running the Proofpoint.  (It's not your
job ;-), but any further hints would be appreciates.

These requests are coming from an external source. I'm not running proofpoint.

Not much I can do about it, I guess. Good to know the source of the requests though.

Not sure what proofpoint is trying to do. They are just getting errors.

Oh well.

Thanks for the info guys.
