Anyone know anything about that? I know it's not a yahoo group but don't know where else to ask. All of a sudden I'm getting emails from them and I didn't sign up for them. There's nothing in it about leaving, unsubscribing etc. Thanks for any info on it.

Yes, I'm getting these messages too. I am just filtering them directly
into my spam folder.

Yes, a Jedi's strength flows from the Force. But beware of the dark side.
Anger, fear, aggression; the dark side of the Force are they. Easily they
flow, quick to join you in a fight. If once you start down the dark path,
forever will it dominate your destiny, consume you it will, as it did

It's not legit, of course. It's possible that we've had either had a bot scraping the RSS feed (disabled now in 2013) or a mole member collecting email addresses. They send spam from a similar-sounding name and many will believe it's something they need to read. Of course, as you recognized, spammers usually do a very poor job of that. For one, none of our posts are ever sourced from a blog.
So far, I've received two of these "New Blog Entry" messages, both yesterday, and that's it.
I report all spam to its sending host, and all hosts linked in the message body, (automatically) to Spamcop.net. If I get more, I'll report those too. I encourage everyone to do the same.

I also report through the use of spamcop.net. It does work to reduce spam. I used to get 30 out of 100 emails as spam now I get 2 out of 100 if any.
