I agree with Mr. Smith. This was the first time I have received any spam
via this site. Perhaps that will be it.

The reason we can all get spam (it seems) is that anyone can post to
this list. Perhaps the moderator could re-configure the list to
accept only postings from approved subscribers. Or, only allow
postings approved in advance by the moderator.

Or, we could wait and see if it subsides. I never got any spam from
this list before this week ... so maybe it will just go away :)
