We've had reports from someone who received mailing list subscription
request confirmation emails from multiple lists on the lists.osgeo.org
server on July 1st around 10:38pm. The requests were apparently
originating from IP address 63.239.52.125 and the person said he received
1000's of mails from our server.
Can someone with access to the logs of the lists server check if this IP
address (63.239.52.125) produced multiple subscription requests on July
1st, presumably for spamming, and if yes then we could perhaps consider
blocking it?
You can contact me off-list if you need more details about the report that
I received (I will not publish all details here).
