I'm very sorry that it happened but I'm lucky that I know now, that
it wasn't me who made the mistake.
It's a Hypermail-feature: If a mail has no "From:"-header, Hypermail
assigns that mail the "From:" of the previous mail. Because spam often
has no "From:"-header this will happen in the future, too. So, please
don't believe that list members send spam.
I for myself will continue to remove spam from the archives of the
mailing list. In addition I hope that we soon can switch to a new
version of majordomo, which allows only members of the list to
send mails to the list.
