Could these guys have sent this as a vindictive attempt at getting back at
us for your good attempt at LARTting them Bruce? If so, *really* LART them
next time :-) But that Hotmail account helps to make them a bit invisible
I think. BTW, you asked u.wash to try to limit access to the list only to
those who are subscribers. I hope they don't take the simple route and
simply bar any Hotmail-sourced messages from getting through. Some
ClassicCmp subscribers could use Hotmail as a quick, simple email provider
-especially if they're traveling, etc.

Maybe after these incidents it'll be closed Mike, but it was rather clear
that outsiders could post to the list. Several legitimate (on topic, that
is) posts from folks who were refered to us with computing questions or
stuff to offer came in during the past months. Spam crap rolled in too
though . . .

Its called a closed list, only subscribers can post.

It's possible I suppose, but I doubt it. The headers didn't look like
-anyone- I've LARTed in the past few months. I think this was just some
moron thinking that mailing lists are good to spam.

I see your point, and I doubt that would happen. If a listmember needs to
send something while traveling, it's easy enough to register one of the
free E-mail addys.
