several times a day...

Did you have any personal replies from list members around that time?
You
might have been added to someones address book then.

That's what I thought at first, but I tracked it back and it started
when I
joined the list.
Thanks for the input though

I haven't had any so I suspect they aren't actually going to the list.
Someone you know has the Swen virus and you are being hit by it. It
spoofs
the senders address so you might have trouble tracking down the real
source.
All you can say for certain is that it's someone with you and the
apparent
sender in their address book.

Hi folks,
Sorry to be a pain, but I am a member of this list and I recieved 386
of
these messages last week alone (see below). This accounts for 10% of
all
emails coming through my server. Are the lists monitored in any way
for
repeated virusers/spammers?
This is really starting to become a nuisance, and it would be a shame
to
have to unsubscribe as I find the lists extremely useful.
Cheers,
Ian
