There are a number of questions I have concerning this:
1. Why is this person/business sending subscription requests to
Ubuntu mailing lists? This is an unusual situation at best.
2. Why is this person/business sending multiple subscription
requests under multiple suspicious email account names, including an
s...@*** name?
3. Why is this person/business continuing to send multiple
subscription requests when he/she/it can clearly see it is causing us to
believe that he/she/it's a spammer?
The obvious conclusion is that he/she/it is a spammer. Delete
his/her/its request, and/or put it in hosts/deny and be done with it.
