[Mailman-Users] Desi-os maps spamming

[Ondercin Paul-O10322]

ez,
 
   You have just spammed several thousand people on a mailing list
devoted to the installation, debugging and use of the Mailman list
server. (See http://www.list.org <http://www.list.org>  ).  You should
research your headers and go through your SMTP Relay's logs to determine
exactly where the spam was sent from and take action in that direction. 
 
   In light of the number of people unjustly accused, we may be the ones
to expect an appology.
 
Regards,
Paul

Dear Mailman
 
As I am sure you are aware, yesterday thousands of users were spammed
from
the following e-dress:<
<http://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/desi-os-maps>
http://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/desi-os-maps> which seems to
be linked with Mailman.
 
As of yet, no-one has received either an explanation or an apology and I
believe one should be forthcoming. Please could you explain to me the
following:
 
* How did this incidence occur?
 
* Where did you get all the e-dresses from? No one subscribed to the
list or gave permission for their emails to be passed on to your
company.
 
* Is there anything we can do to stop such an incidence occuring
again?
 
* Will you be issuing an apology and a guarantee that this shall not
occur again?
 
Please remove my e-dress from any lists you may have and please supply
where
you got my edress from. Thank you for your time.
