Lately we've been seeing a lot of link-spam with just a link in the
body, generally no subject line, and the real tip-off is that it's
addressed To: both pgsql-general (or another of our lists) and half a
dozen random other addresses.
I assume these are coming from addresses that are actually subscribed
to our lists, because otherwise the moderators should've rejected them.
Probably somebody's found a way to break into large numbers of yahoo
and google mail accounts and spam from them to all their address book
entries ...

FWIW, a couple of months ago the anti-spam mail filters on our server
started to reject "anything yahoo" (including loads of legit stuff,
obviously). And I still see a lot of messages announcing that Ive just been
subscribed to this or that yahoo discussion group. However, this is all OT,
I suppose what we need here is just a way to signal spammers to the admin,
is there any?

Take it as spam and don't rethink about.
Cheers,
