The /real/ question here; is why there isn't /more/ spam on this list - really.
I've been working on an anti-spam solution for about 9 months.
It's a completely automated system. In the first 3 months it had
garnered over 5 million spam sources - that's over 5 million IP addresses.
Each and every IP was an /actual/ spam source - not one false positive.
So, given all the lists they manage here, it's nothing but remarkable
that we're not seeing more spam than we do. In my opinion, after being on
this list for several years, we see damn little spam.

Best wishes.

Quoting Ivan Petrushev <ivanat...@gmail.com>:

So there is not spam protection or whatever installed on the software
servicing the mail list? Abuse control? User registration approval?

Oh, for heaven's sake get a grip.  DO NOT SEND THE WHOLE LOAD OF CRAP TO
ALL OF US YET AGAIN!  At very least, learn to trim.

As to your question:  Because somebody sent it to the mailing list.
Doh!  There are a lot of these going to many technical mailing lists,
many with forged return addresses.
