[arch-general] fake archlinux list message
hi all, i received the attached message. I don't know much about email headers but it seems to have all the headers as if posted from arch linux servers. Furthermore the address gerolde.archlinux.org points to an irrelevant page. George Nikolopoulos

Spammers got arch-projects' mail address somewhere (hacked someone with it in contacts?). ~All messages on the list have such headers.

It's indeed a spam message, though i didn't receive it, assuming it was sent to the list. Anyway, gerolde is the name of the main arch server.
