Re: Spam alert
I have also just subscribed and I am wondering about these emails. I am
subscribed to a number of lists so I don't know which one these come from.
Are the Debian lists particularly prone to this sort of stuff, or have we
just been unlucky?

Hi. I started receiving a whole lot of spam last night, shortly after
subscribing and posting to this newsgroup for the first time. I'm not
sure which brand of net-annoyant it is, but I'm receiving a lot of
messages with big .exe files attached (funny that I can't open these in
my macintosh household)
A lot of these say things like "New critical update" from "Microsoft"
(obviously neither is true)

I'm hoping one of you can take corrective action to kill this virus,
because my mailbox filled to capacity today and started bouncing messages
back to people >:(
