Yes, probably... the emails from this list are also on the PHP newgroup. Also, you're email address will be posted in archives of this list, and possibly auto-appear in address books of many subscribers -- these address books then become the target of virus spam.
My advice is to create an email address only for this list, and auto-delete anything that doesn't have [PHP] in the subject. The same problem exists for posting your email address in any public way.
