But it is originating all from different IP addresses. Who knows if this
is an attack to get *@jdlabs.fr blocked from NANOG and is just getting
its goal accomplished.



This is the part that's been bugging me.  Doesn't the NANOG server
implement SPF checking on inbound list mail?  jdlabs.fr doesn't appear to
have an SPF record published.  It seems to me that these messages should
have been dropped during the connection.
