[kwlug-disc] Increased list spam? [Was: Re: Meet a girl of ...]

[Raul Suarez]

I don't filter and I didn't get any spam to this list.
 
Maybe something on your email system, Bill?

I don't think this actually made it to the list.  I didn't see it.
It must have gotten caught, and bounced to one of the list admins
or something.

Or maybe spammers are forging some kwlug headers.

As a side note, I filter kwlug mail by the List-Id: header,
not the From headers.
