Whenever I post to this list these days I get one of their auto-replies, and they always spoof the from address to whatever I had in the "to" field of my message to the list. >> This is totally uncool.

It seems somebody subscribed to GnuPG-users is forwarding all their list mail immediately to that ticketing system. > I asked them what this is about several days ago. Asked who? secure.mpcustomer.com? I tried contacting them a cvouple of weeks back but both the postmaster@ and abuse@ addresses bounce with "host mail.mpcustomer.com [208.43.138.199]: 550 No such person at this address" > This ticket system does NOT send its replies via this > list (it couldn't) but sends it directly to you.

I guess somebody with a list of the addresses subscribed to this list could find out by sending a test message to each member in turn until the auto-reply is tripped, then ask that person to stop forwarding and delete them if they don't. Or one message to everybody with a customised subject line for each. Alternatively, those of us who are fed up with the messages could simply filter them out ourselves.
