Yes, I have.  I have been deleting it on sight, but when the next one
comes through, will examine the headers.  I don't think it's coming via
the mailing list, as my email client automatically sorts mail from the
list into a pseudo-newsgroup, whereas the spam is ending up in my inbox.

I suspect the spammers have harvested a list of email addresses from one
of the list archives out on the web.
