It looks to me as if they are happening on messages sent via the nabble 
forum. For example,
<http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2007-03/msg00286.html> has this at the end:

View this message in context: 
http://www.nabble.com/copy-paste-tf3374100.html#a9392075
Sent from the Cygwin Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

If you follow that link the message does not have the [ANNOUNCEMENT] in the 
subject when displayed there.
