  If I wanted to collect the listees addresses all I need to do is
subscribe to the list, add the senders address to a spam folder as
each posted, and voila. If I was clever I could set up a little
program to do it automatically.

  Spam is everywhere, possibly even coming from your computer via an
implanted "bot".  The best protection is to re-subcribe when
necessary with a "fresh" yahoo or gmail address.
