Maybe the mechanics are like this: some robot sends our G-list
postings to that Fusenet address (postmas...@fuse.net) which then gets
overloaded and sends us a "The user(s) account is temporarily over
quota" message for each of those postings.
(Fortunately, mine are promptly moved to my spam folder. Google Mail
isn't perfect, but on such occasions, I'm really happy about it!)

So it looks like this is in fact an attack aimed at fuse.net rather
than at us; the originator "uses" our posts as ammunition to try and
overload their server.
