This appears to be automated mailman behavior. There are some subscribers to the list that change their email addresses frequently, so I do not keep a very close eye on churn due to bounces, resubscriptions, unsubscriptions, etc. I can always take a closer look at mail logs, if you are wondering about specific message legitimacy, or why something bounced, or whatever... - Greg (who runs the server hosting cypherpunks) On Wed, Aug 01, 2018 at 02:22:06PM -0700, Mirimir wrote:

I've gotten them before, and ignored them.
But I don't think that they're phishing. Just trigger-happy list software, I think.
