You're probably receiving random messages from some infected machine which is putting a cygwin at cygwin dot com in the header but isn't really coming from cygwin dot com. If you can actually find a virus infected message in the archives, then please post a url here. Otherwise, you're most likely just experiencing the standard behavior of a virus which is sending out email from an infected machine. I did receive a few messages from someone in the earthlink domain and think I managed to figure out that person's identity. But they were sending individual email to individual people not to the cygwin mailing list, AFAICT. -- Please do not send me personal email with cygwin questions.
