    Red face Possible spam emails being received

    Hi. I'm using Xubuntu 3.2.0-24 64 bit and Thunderbird 12.0.1.
    I seem to be getting a large number of emails reportedly from the Ubuntu QA website titled [Bug 441835] Re: Clicking on floppy gives "no device media found". So far I've had 160 of these...
    Please comment.

    Look at the source of the email. In Thunderbird [Other Actions>View Source]
    or Ctrl+U.
    The originator of the mail is just above the message text.

    There is nothing more you can do rather adding them to junk list .
    Somehow some spammers may have sneaked into the mailing lists .

    The moderators can take action and removing/blocking them from the mailing list list .

    Get the domain where they are coming from and give it to the appropriate people.
