Apparently the CID managed to get itself subscribed to the list, so the 
messages in question should have gone to everybody. I have put a filter on 
that address aeons ago so didn't get copies myself, or I would have noticed 
much earlier. I have removed the offending address manually. I don't think 
they have the addresses of any list members except possibly those who sent 
them complaints.

I'm inclined to give the CID folks the benefit of the doubt and just assume 
that they're so stupid they couldn't pour water out of a boot if the 
instructions were printed on the heel, rather than think that they subscribed 
to the list on purpose specifically to spam everybody. I've been complaining 
to them for approximately a century about the spam they send me personally, 
so I don't think they actually *read* their incoming mail. Maybe they can't 
actually read. If they try to subscribe again I will block them for good as 
far as the list is concerned, and perhaps send them a copy or two of the 
Linux kernel source code to see if they notice *that*.

And these clowns believe they're in charge of dancing for the whole *world*?? 
Give me a break.
