Well, in the source address (in the header) is
Dave E Stephens Sr <kf6...@yahoo.com>
and he's been a group member since april
of 2008.
I'm going to give him the benefit of the doubt
and not ban him, but in case someone's hacked
his password he's now on moderation,
BTW, I know you folks (now over 4800 as of
yesterday) probably don't realize it, but this group
is set up to place every new member on automatic
moderation. It takes deliberate action by a
moderator to change that status to unmoderated.
The new user doesn't get to "regular" status
until we (the moderators) see just what kind of stuff
they post. If I see a ham callsign it's 1 or 2, if not, more.
And just to give you all an idea of the c...@p you don't
see, in the last 5 days alone I've rejected 5 messages
(i.e. spam) and banned 4 email addresses (spammers).
These days for every 10 new legit members we ban 1 or 2.
At the moment there are almost 300 that have been
banned. One gentleman has been banned at email
addresses belonging to three different ISPs.

can't be good, and I definitely won't click on a link in the message.
