STOP SPAM!
Those aren't spam messages, but virusses. I'm surprised you got a copy via the mailing list though, because most were blocked by the mailing list management software (mailman) before they were sent to the list.
I even didn't get any copy, but that may be because my university has a virus scanner installed on its mailservers.

Am I the only one who gets _almost_ all fpc-pascal and fpc-devel messages twice? What could cause it?
Ingmar Tulva,
The last 5 messages from [fpc-pascal]in my box were doubled also. This is very peculiar.

What, you think yelling at it will make it go away? :)
The list admin needs to block posts from non-members.

That is not possible as there are some ppl (me included) that post normal mails to the mailing list from a different address.
Just ignore those spam mails and don't start replying on them, because those replies can also be seen as unwanted emails.

i also noticed that and report it on the list but the problem is still there.

I've recently learned a trick that solves this problem: just subscribe to the list with all addresses you want to post from and set all but one to "no mail" in your options. That way both problems are solved at the same time.
Does anyone have any objections against this? If not, I will adjust all fpc lists' configurations accordingly (once apache is restarted on deadlock, it seems to be down. Daniel?).
PS: I also get certain messages twice, but I really don't know what causes it. Some seem to be sent out twice from deadlock (= lists.freepascal.org):

As you can see, deadlock sends out one copy using "" and another from "). Some are also sent twice to deadlock for some reason (in that case, they are sent to e.g. both fpc- and ).
Maybe this happens when people do a reply all and whent the to-address is @lists.freepascal.org and the reply-to field is @deadlock.et.tudelft.nl (for some reason, it seems to be impossible to configure mailman so that it sets the reply-to field to @lists.freepascal.org as well).

Wanna bet? You subscribe your posting address and then select "no mail" in your account maint. screen. I run a couple of lists off one of my machines using Mailman, and this is the option I suggest to users with a single read address but multiple or different posting addresses.

It's not my favorite option. There is a much better way to fight spam, that is blocking servers with open mail relays. We used to run this but since orbl is out of order we aren't protected anymore.
Most virusses are also blocked by setting a message size limit. It's easy to stop diseases like Sircam this way. There are virusses however that do not generate large e-mails.

There is no-one subscribed to this list with the address "". I've blocked that address from posting to the list now.
