Hi,

I extremely apologize for this message, but i think this needs to be figured out. I just yesterday registered my new email address with tomcat-dev, and i received the spam below almost immediately thereafter. Only a few people are aware of this email address, so the origin of spam info 99% appears to be tomcat-dev registration. Is there any chance that DNS gets resolved to one of several IPs, one of which collects these emails and uses them for spam (or perhaps is infected with a virus)? I would look for any IPs based in russia as the prime suspects, because this email contains russian text and appears to be originated there.

What's worse is that 25 minutes after this spam, i received another one of similar content. Please help save me and others from this plague of the Internet.
I entrusted apache.org with this address, and hope we can keep it between us.

P.S. If there are other people who received similar emails, please let me, the admins, or the list know. If you let only me know, i will accumulate the number of people affected and forward this to an admin.
P.P.S. I see that emails are protected in the archives publicly published, and i think this issue is in the same category.

Thanks,
<rsa/>
