No, it can't. The only way to stop it would be for moderators to hold every post for approval, and that is not going to happen.

Listserv has no way of telling that a message from a list member is from a compromised account, so when that happens a minimum of one spam message is going to be distributed. Whether that's the only one depends on when a moderator reads the list mail -- we don't have a set schedule or stand watches or anything like that. So far IIRC we've always caught it before a second one.

Yours, d mod
