So the bug is actually that they somehow allow people to register unconfirmed emails.
I believe I would automatically discard such confirmation messages from the python-IL moderation queue (and coming to think of it I think I do remember deleting some Linkedin email-confirmation message or something similar). Hmm... I think that mailman sends some automatic reply on the line of "your message has been queued for moderation" - maybe linkedin takes that as a confirmation? The interactions between these automated systems can be a little funny sometimes ...
