It's unlikely that the list is being used directly for spam for two reasons:

1) The lists are "closed" lists, which means that one must be subscribed to
the list in order to post to it.

2) The majordomo commands to retrieve the list of subscribers have been
disabled, so one cannot harvest the addresses on the list.

The only persons with access to the full subscriber list are the moderators.

Subject: [U2] [OT] Has anyone exoerienced a HUGE increase of Spam?

I have experienced a HUGE increase in SPAM lately and I was wondering if
somehow the users list has been "utilized" to facilitate that.  I am not
thinking that the origin is knowingliy from the administrators of this fine
list -- but if this list was somehow lifted or otherwise absconded...
