Yup. http://list.waikato.ac.nz/archives/wlug/ The list only accepts posts from subscribed addresses, but unfortunately this doesn't stop someone mass-spamming the members directly. :-/ I reckon the convenience/usefulness of having a public archive is more important than cutting down on all spam, but we could look at masking all e-mail addresses for the web archive.
I suggest nuking Wellington...
