Quoting it completely and sending it back to the mailing list won't help. It's already reported. If everyone on this this list does the same (send it with full headers to , stating it's been
sent by a customer of theirs (209.61.154.92) and that the spamvertized site "www.SomeoneLikesYou.com" is also hosted by them (209.61.152.206)), maybe rackspace will even do something about it...

And yes, restricting posting to the mailing list to members only would have prevented this. But as I posted a couple of hours ago on fpc-devel (in response to that suggestion):

***
This was already discussed a while ago. While it's possible for people posting from different addresses to subscribe with all those addresses and set all but one to "no-mail" (so they can post using all those addresses and still receive only one copy of each message sent to the mailing list), the general consensus was that there isn't enough spam on these lists to warrant such a measure which would inconvenience several people. And yes, that sentence is waaaay too long :) ***
