Probably because they are a one-line response to an identical set of
spams, sent by the same mail-sending library only because the
different people use the same email app on their phones? My point
was that you'd expect that sort of email even from different people.

It really doesn't take much imagination to see how multiple people
can send similar messages without requiring that there be some
co-ordinated attack on this mailing list. Less imagination, in fact.

Cheers,
Andy
