THIS listowner (not "manager") immediately notified the America Online abuse address ([log in to unmask]). The spammer was from aol, and they have a specific policy about such abuse. I am sure that the spammer is now account-less. For the most part, the LISTSERV program that runs Histarch catches the spam before it hits the list (I get all those notes). This one got through somehow.
