Sorry Hub, I consider this far from closed, this is way too serious
to just ignore.
If the abisource.com addresses do not get through without
subscription, then I do want to know *how* the spam did get on the
list, because for the spammer to be subscribed to it, he would have
to hack our server -- there is no way s/he could have validated
subscription for <Research@Make-Cents.abisource.com> without
actually being able to receive mail at that address. So either there
is a security hole in the mailing list software, or we have been
hacked, and in either case we need to get to the bottom of it.
