The spam was sent through the mailing list.  There is no way to stop 
spammers from abusing mailing lists unless you make the list closed 
access (which would utterly defeat the point of the FreeBSD MLs).  The 
FreeBSD mail admin(s) actually do a pretty good job.  These are very 
old, very well known open lists and the spam rate is very low.
