I got one as well. I imagine it's someone using freshdesk for service management. Just file and forget. I don't think it's anything too stupid or spam.

I dissent. :)

Subscribing an address that delivers into a SM system that autocreates user identities for each new sender address (see also: RequestTracker) is at a minimum stupid and has been used as an intentional nuisance attack, both targeting the mailing list as a community and the SM organization (specifically, abuse desks.)

It would be a good idea to figure out what subscribed address is causing these and unsubscribe that address (and ban it) from the list.
