Re: Uptick in spam?

My email has filtered out all the spam so I wasn't aware of any of this. The
archive at http://www.eros-os.org/pipermail/e-lang/2011-April/date.html does
show a sudden explosion in spam, but not show the From: line for these
messages. Could you forward to me personally the full set of headers from a
sample spam message? Do these all have the same From:

I do have admin rights over e-lang and can block users, but I need to know
who. I don't see any user named "..".
