I share my mailserver with several GitHub users.  Recently, we've all been getting recruitment spam to addresses mined from GitHub.

I wonder if GitHub cares about their platform being used for harvesting.

Email to [email protected] appears to be ignored.

Anyone from GitHub on this list?

Are you sure this doesn't come from geekedin compromise?

I haven't checked if the addresses are in the geekedin compromise.

Could be related.

Thanks for the pointer.
