[Rcpp-devel] Spoofed mail on rcpp-devel

[Dirk Eddelbuettel]

Do not open the message with the subject

   [Rcpp-devel] Message could not be delivered

pretending to be sent by

   ripley at stats.ox.ac

Be particularly careful on a Windows computer.

The headers show it originates from 153.84.100.83 which does not traceroute
back to Oxford. It also carries a header

   X-ACL-Warn: X-malware detected: Win.Worm.Mydoom-5

I hope this doesn't foretell more breakage of the mailman subscription layer.
Someone clearly fudged this on purpose to plant a worm. Don't let them.
