[Air-l] aoir.org, appropriation/spam

[jeremy hunsinger]

Hi,
recently, I've been noticing that i've been getting spam from AoIR.org, 
and I've had some reports of a virus distributed here.  However, after 
investigation, I can confirm that none of these events have actually 
been disseminated from our servers.  Instead, they have been, 
appropriated and distributed as originating from aoir.org, even though 
they have not.  This, of course, is quite easy to do with open 
relays(aoir.org is not open) and should be summarily ignored by you.  
But if you do receive something that you think is of dubious origin but 
claiming to be aoir.org, please feel free to send it to 
postmaster(substitute@)aoir.org and I will investigate it, remember to 
send full headers if possible.

Thanks,
