I've seen this attack on a private list I'm on as well. It wasn't clear if the subscribed address was being spoofed or 
if the user had an infected computer.

In the last week. Obviously that includes things like Jay’s message below, but still a lot more than 100.

It also hit outages@, and probably other places.

Of course, I’m very upset about that. After 500+ tries, they did not spoof my name once!!! Guess I’m not important 
enough. <pout>
