The spammer is sending to both <list> and <list-owner>. I see these all the time, but the copy sent to <list> gets held back for admin approval because the poster isn't a list subscriber. The copy sent to <list-owner> does get though to us, assuming it isn't caught by normal spam measures. -Jim P. ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq01.027.htp
