It was spam. Many of the lists on xmission were spammed with this - it wasn't the moderators fault. The perpetrator used a reasonable looking hotmail address. I know - because my list on xmission was also spammed.

Whoever is Betty should examine again that web site.
Is Utah-astronomy now supporting and recommending adult web sites with all that porn etc in it? There are young people perhaps that read Utah-astronomy email and can click on Betty's (Utah-astronomy) recommended web site.
Betty please keep that stuff to yourself not the rest of us. Find your happy hugs from those who love you not from that web site.
Why is a nice lady doing this anyway?

Being a list managed with the mailman software, it would be relatively easy depending on the mailman software setup to automate a process which searched on google for mailman-style URLS. A mailman installation usually has a page which lists all the lists it manages. It would fairly trivial to write a bot which would find these types of lists, subscribe to all the lists on the list, and spam away, which is possibly what happened here. -- Dan Hanks
