I completely agree.. This kind of spamming is outrageous!

What kind of action can we take to prevent this type of abuse in the future?
Is it possible to have the messages go through some kind of moderator prior
to distribution to this (or other FreeBSD lists).

If it is possible.. I would gladly volunteer!

Hello all.  I recently received an obvious spam.  The header and
reply-to were obviously forged (it's listed as
ImportantFor@YourLife.com, and there was no path posted in the message
to hint from where it was sent.   However, it did have the tell-tale tag
re: "to unsubscribe from freebsd-newbies send mail to majordomo..."

So, I ask:  What happened here?  Did others receive the same message?
And if not, it still brings up a good point, I suppose.  Is there a way
to trace a message like this?  (I guess it's obvious that I have issues
with people using the internet to push their religious doctrine may
way!!)  All comments are welcome.
