I wouldn't have thought so, or we'd be inundated with spam. As it is, we seem to get just the odd one or two. I suspect they subscribe, bide their time, then post it. That, or they simply read the list and copy some poster's address and fraudulently post as them. Of course, if other anti-spam techniques only accept mail from a user from their own mail servers, that ought to stop that approach. -- NB: All unexpected mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted. I will only get to see the messages that are posted to the list.
