Please understand that this is a public mailing list. It is not possible to prevent all spam from being sent to a public mailing list, and it is (thankfully) not possible to delete messages after individuals have downloaded those messages to their local machines. Deleting a message in Google Groups will not delete it from people's inboxes, from Gmane, or from any other entity that might be mirroring the mailing list. Since attempting to police Google Groups for spam would provide very little benefit (at a non-zero cost), we've decided to take a hands-off approach. This means that we will typically not delete messages from Google Groups once they've been successfully sent to our mailing lists. (Note, however, that there *is* a Google Groups spam filter, and it *does* prevent a lot of spam from showing up in the first place.) Please also understand that we make it a point to trust as little of the infrastructure we use as possible. This includes things like the mailing lists, GitHub, the website, and all the servers they run on. Those servers are all controlled by third-party entities, not us. This is why we stress the importance of verifying signatures [1] on ISOs and emails. We also encourage Qubes users to adopt this same attitude of distrusting the infrastructure. In fact, empowering users to do this -- to have a secure endpoint that only *you* control -- is why Qubes exists. You *should* assume that those ZIP files are malicious, but thanks to Qubes, you don't have to worry that opening one will compromise your entire digital life. (In this case, since it's just spam, you have no reason to open those attachments. But if you have to open a suspicious attachment, do it in a DispVM or an untrusted AppVM!)
