At least two messages were sent, one to the list, and one to plug-admin.
In both cases, according to the Received: header appended by my server,
the IP address in question was 216.254.118.44, a speakeasy.net customer:
Received: from unknown (HELO baldrick) (216.254.118.44)
by mail.netisland.net with SMTP; 19 Jan 2004 13:02:53 -0000
My understanding is that speakeasy.net hands out mostly static IPs, which
should make it fairly trivial for them to track it down if you contact
their abuse department.
