I recieved the following subscribe message addressed to
info-mime-request@cs.utk.edu. This looks suspiciously like an attempt
to flood that 800 number with junk faxes (probably from lots of lists)
and bill lots of calls to it.
I telephoned that number and it turns out to be a doctor's office in
Queens, NY. It's not even attached to a fax machine, and sure enough,
they are getting lots of calls with a high-pitched beep.
So you might want to check your lists and see if this same address is
subscribed... Also, since the subscription itself came from a listproc,
maybe the attacker was using that to cover his/her tracks?
