I guess Ukranian spammers still have to figure out the art of forging headers, then again, these ones are certainly a mess, if nothing else. Of all the mailing lists on all the servers that I belong to, FreeBSD's are wide open to spam. There should be tighter control over posting to the lists, at least they should require a subscription confirmation. Then at least we won't have to see, mostly, these idiot subscribe/unsubscribe messages.
