Certainly we don't want spammers on the list. That's why we require subscribing 
to the list before posting is allowed. As far as I know this has been 
successful in keeping spam away. This is the first I've heard of spam getting 
through.

I did not receive the spam to which you are replying; I guess my mail server's 
spam filter caught it.

For the moment I assume the subscribed individual is a real person interested 
in MacPorts -- they have sent real messages to the list before, e.g.

https://lists.macosforge.org/pipermail/macports-users/2013-July/033037.html

I assume that a spammer obtained their email address and their address book and 
is now spamming their contacts.
