Cross-posted to listmom-talk and list-managers.

The following message was posted to SPAM-L this morning. I thought that
it would be of interest over here, as well. I contacted the sender and
asked him to send me the list of attacked servers; I have posted it on my
Web page in case you would like to know if yours was among the many.

<http://colossus.arl.mil/docs/aol_list_spam.txt>

Hit it quickly if you intend to hit it at all; I don't plan on leaving
it up there for more than a couple of days, lest it become a source of
list servers for future attacks. (Sure, there are plenty of places out
there for people to get such lists, but I don't want MY server to become
one of them.)

As such, if you redistribute this message to any non-listmom or
potentially non-listmom parties, please remove the URL above. Thanks.

- Vince
