Can't you use majordomo to get the people > subscribed to the mailing lists? Same here, I'm only in one source file and with a UUCP domain. A majordomo query of `who list-name' returns all of the subscribers to list-name. My domain is only in the cvs-all list. Perhaps they only spammed .com domains or people they were able to finger and determine some commercial connection. As I recall, the mail started with, "Your company is using international networks", or somesuch. This was my first unsolicited junk email. I guess I am lucky. John Capo
