RE: [Xen-users] Spam on xen-announce

["James Bulpin" <James.Bulpin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Ah, OK. The archival address is within @lists.xensource.com so the
common spam method of forging an address in the same domain as the
recipient works. As far as the archiver is concerned it's just another
message sent to the xen-announce list. Next time we generate the archive
HTML we'll blow away the spam. We're currently running a temporary
server with the mail server and archiver split across two sites. This
unfortunate problem will go away when they are recombined on to the same
server later in the year.

Regards,
James
