Oh, okay.. i meant list subscription is open to all, but subscribers list is only available to administrators. Tell me if you can access it without authentication?
I dont know how but people are able to harvest the email addys of this list. I started getting spam on this email address only AFTER i had subscribed to this list. The same was the case with hotmail. Remember i changed my email from hotmail to gmail because of the SPAM issue?
There might be some misconfiguration, some vulnerability in the system which allows non users (or even regular users) to access the membership list. Please check it from you part...

But I must point out over here that GMAIL spam filter ROCKS!!! It filters out all spam messages almost perfectly except for a ILUG-BOM message here and there =P
