Just an observation. I have not seen the spam you are discussing. Possibly it is specific to gmail addresses?

Hi!
This happened to me also! I just got a spam email just after posting and then in following days I got obnoxious spam emails in my spam filter. As the others, I think that there is some kind of bot subscribed to the list, but also perhaps a spider or crawler monitoring the R-Help archive and getting email addresses there. Nabble is a possibility too.
