It is becoming obvious that email address munging, as applied by Mailman 
is not being effective.

Try this:

Go to Google
type in "holden.john at btconnect.com" in the search box.

It returns:

ENG-LAN-Manchester Info Page
... ENG-LAN-Manchester list run by holden.john at btconnect.com 
ENG-LAN-Manchester
administrative interface (requires authorization). version 2.0.13,
www.british-genealogy.com/mailman/ listinfo/eng-lan-manchester


Note!
An *un-munged* email address from what is really there, which is:

ENG-LAN-Manchester list run by holden.john at btconnect.com
ENG-LAN-Manchester administrative interface (requires authorization)
Overview of all british-genealogy.com mailing lists

and *even* though the embedded mailto link from "holden.john at 
btconnect.com" is to 
"mailto:eng-lan-manchester-owner at british-genealogy.com"

If Google can do it... then spam trawlers can do it :-(

Some serious suggestions are needed!

Regards
Rod
