We received this email on info@osgeo.org today. I have made a first pass
and been unable to see a way of modifying lists.osgeo.org to not send any
email to a particular user from local delivery agents (ie. mailman).
Advise welcome.

Hello
I am getting 100's of emails from you every day inviting me to be on your
mailing lists. They are from all your lists not just this one but the
common factor is the last part '@lists.osgeo.org'
Can you help me stop these please as in total I must have had over 5000 in
the last few days.
Can you trace who 172.241.140.196 is?
I am a retired sick person living in England and this is very disturbing
and any help you can give would be much appreciated
Thank you
David Playfair
Copy of typical email is as follows:
