tuxorama.com does a SMTP probe for every posting to this list and is one of the very few IPs I have firewalled off. The probes seem to always come from 81.169.185.26 (now they'll probably change IPs and I'll have to block some other IP or range), so they, while irritating are very easy to block. Asking them to stop seems to result in them stopping for a week or so, then beginning again. They likely have one or more users who subscribe to this list.
