Yeah, I just killed about 10 of them myself.  Nuisance.

Welcome to the Internet!  This is what's called a "mailing list".  Cool, 
huh?  You send a single message to fedora-list(a)redhat.com, and it gets 
forwarded to thousands of different E-mail addresses, including a 
"gfrith(a)gmail.com", whose broken mail script bounces the message to the 
address in the from: header, instead of the message's actual return address.

I have seen them here as well.  One ended up in my inbox, I read it and
then told Thunderbird that it was junk.  I haven't seen any more...

I have no idea what it is about or what caused it. AFAIK I didn't send
any mail to that address. Perhaps it is a spoofed address or something
along those lines.

No, it's not.  You send a message to fedora-list, and the fedora server sends 
it to every member of the list.  As Sam explained, gfrith's gmail account is 
bouncing them to the writer, not to the list.

Hi all,

I'm only just catching up on the list and am afraid have no  
explanation of why this mail was bounced...  I am sorry for any   
inconvenience it may have caused in your inbox.  For this particular  
mail address I use a simple pop3 mail client talking directly to the  
gmail server.  No elaborate mail scripts or rules to bounce any  
mails.  Neither have i had any reports of bounced mails from anywhere  
else.

Again, apologies.

Greg
