An FYI for anyone interested ... Yesterday I was notified of a site, http://answerpot.com, that was archiving two of our lists (without permission, which we require for republication).
I couldn't find anything fishy in the logs, so I turned on personalization. But the site was stripping out email addresses from the message bodies (including those I was inserting into the footers). So I ended up putting user_optionsurl in the footers, waited for someone to post, then checked the answerpot.com site for the message and finally identified the culprit. It turned out to be a zeusmail.org address. That domain was discussed here a few months ago after some people noticed a large number of subscriptions/attempts from there. I've unsubscribed everything from that domain and added it to the banned list. I haven't heard of any legitimate subscribers from that domain -- yet -- so I'm hoping that will take care of the problem. They had actually subscribed late last year, but apparently started archiving only in April. rac ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://wiki.list.org/x/AgA3 Security Policy: http://wiki.list.org/x/QIA9 Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org
