Paul:
Maybe dumb question, but on finding the spammer: How many subscribers does the list have? What if you divided the list into say four groups. Then, if you can unsubscribe one group for a day, and watch the traffic. When the spam stops, you know you have the right (wrong!) group. Then, keep subdividing till you eliminate. I would be willing to go without the list for a day or two, and re-subscribe after, to root out a scum sucker spammer.

There must be a spammer subscribed to the list with some kind of
auto-reply set up and there's no way I know of to find out which account
is doing this. Whatever you do, don't reply to these spam/scam messages.

Just this morning I received a spam that purported to be from Barbara
(obviously it wasn't).

didn't! Definitely, something going on with the group - anyone else
getting more strange messages? Have we been hacked?
