Did anyone else get a message like this via their CPAN alias? I think it's pretty odd that someone would mail me personally with a message like this. Instead, it looks like someone just iterated over their local CPAN mirror and sent everyone an e-mail. If this is the case, I'm going to report it to spamcop. If that's not the case, I'm going to nicely suggest that they post to jobs.perl.org instead.
Thanks.
