It might be unrelated, or not.  I care for a few lists opened to subscribers
only, and recently, I saw unwanted email circulating on them.  In the
few cases I looked into a bit more closely, originators were all running
Microsoft emailing agents, and had their systems infected.  So I guess
subscribers had these messages sent against their will -- I mean, once we
accept to disregard the will they have for running questionable software :-).
