I did consider the theory that the corrupted messages are a malicious side 
effect of the current spam-fest, including the possibility they they are being 
generated by one or more of the Derbyshire-obsessed spammers.

However, I think the best strategy is to try to make the TDS sysadmins aware of 
the situation. If the messages are not coming from TDS they are being 
repeatedly libeled. The TDS admins may have both an interest in putting a stop 
to it, and better resources than I have for doing so.
