Abuse would be only if this person isn't a member.  In effect, he'd have to
be sending his messages through an unsecure server.

If the problem is the shared account problem you refer to, then it would be
the first sentence "this guy even is on the list..." and we should send him
info on how to remove himself.  Another point though, he can't justify
sharing an account, with so many free accounts out there.  If one of them is
a die hard linux fan, they can get a free email account and move their
membership to that account.  I doubt many aol members are big linux fans
though, the "@aol" bit makes me very doubtful of the legitimacy of this
email.  Out of our whole list, we have two people using AOL, and I've not
noticed either one responding to the list.  Also, I can find no Ray or
Debbie in the members director page.  Granted, this could be "Quite Unlikely
EMAIL:PROTECTED" or some similar name, but its more likely that
someone is simple pestering us.
