You hit a bug in this mailing list archive's web interface! Normally, it
invalidates the sender's addresses as in this case:

http://www.linuxtv.org/mailinglists/linux-dvb/2004/02-2004/msg00357.html

But e.g. in your message above, it failed to do so:

http://www.linuxtv.org/mailinglists/linux-dvb/2004/02-2004/msg00356.html

As the web interface is being searched by e.g. Google, it is unsurprising a
SPAM bot picked it up from there...
