Since stopping archiving of blinux-list didn't stop spammer, we have
proof that spammer is a subscriber of blinux-list.
Now I'm hiding sender email address of a message to blinux list,
replacing it with the list address.
This should stop email address harvesting and spamming.

As I understand it, RedHat is just providing the hosting and has
nothing to do with the actual operation of the list, and since most of
the list's functionality is completely automated, there might not even
be a flesh and blood person behind whatever e-mail serves as the list
owner.
Whether the
amy.kristen7...@josona.bid is not a subscriber to blinux-list.
To prevent scraping of poster addresses, I have stopped archiving of
blinux-list.

there is one thing that could be done that would definitely lock out spammers.

At that point, most spam bots would be locked out. This wouldn't prevent them

I sent the command to the listserve to get a list of the subscribers.
As you can see from the response below, it said you have to be an
administrator to get that. That is not unusual. Some lists allow the
subscribers to get a list of the other subscribers but this one does not.
But, Henry, of course the spammer is replying directly back to the
person who posted the message rather than back to the list. Spammers
always work that way. I also don't see what difference it makes whether
the bot (it clearly is a bot) was set up deliberately or if it is the

If you decide to move this list, will this impact how I prefer reading
