I've been subscribed to the cassini newsletter for years at this stage but this morning I got about 30 spam emails all seemingly having been sent out to the Cassini mailing list.

I've emailed the web team but I'm wondering if anyone has seen anything unusual coming in?

It seems that maybe their mailing list info has been compromised. If anyone knows someone who could find out or anything it would be great. I got all these spam straight into my gmail inbox. I never get spam into my inbox so this is exceptional.

The email header has this stuff in it.

Got the Cassini-email spam as well.
A bunch of Costco links (all fakes) included.
It even got through our work server spam filter.
A flood of other emails also hit my email over the next 20 mins.

Something has gone very wrong.
