Ranjan:

Thank you for the clarification.

Posts should be filtered and moderated, but it looks like that is either broken or one of the moderators has an autoforward filter turned on.  However, the address list had a bunch of names on it as well.  Looks like a possible spam attack.  This 'hole' needs to be filled.
