I was out of town last week and it has taken me a bit of time to catch 
up here :-)

I stand corrected. The spammer had subscribed to the list under four 
different addresses. I have no idea how they got their attachment to 
pass through qth.net. I'll copy qth on this email.

I have removed the spammer from the subscriber roll and am currently 
moderating all postings for the next 24 hours. I will also moderate all 
new subscriptions to try to prevent this happening again. Sorry for the 
problems!
