Oops -- I failed to put in a 

    smtpd_restriction_classes = permissive

Thank you for asking. I suspect that will resolve why it seems to be ignored.

I do not want to put that address in mynetworks since I do not want to allow
that address relay priviledges. I think defining the class would probably fix
things.

I did not understand them either, which is why I was trying to figure out what
was going on and why I posted my question. However, thanks to you and other
posters, it is becoming obvious that the message is probably a forged spam. I
am now starting to get multiple rejects at about the same time. Hence,
multiple spams?  

I just put in a drop all packets from that ip address. 

I guess I could put in the permit change and see what is in the message, but i
prefer to just drop it.

Unfortunately, the "to" address is unique to this list. That means the spammer
got the address from the list, its archives, or the server. I use archive:
encrypt, but not all archives recognize that header. If it keeps on, I shall
simply change my subscription address for this list. That is one advantage of
using unique addresses for all communication.
