It's not a list spammer. It's a forum spammer. Presumably people get banned quickly on the forums, but that doesn't clean messages from the list.

Then again, this guy has been at it quite heavily for hours...

When is that forum <-> mailing list link gonna be torn down again?
If the forum software can't be upgraded yet, what about implementing modetation at the list boundary? That is, filter on wineforum-user's real name.

It also creates yet another post that has to be deleted from the forum by a moderator or admin.

There's a sticky at the top of the forum entitled "Do NOT reply to spam posts." Everyone, please abide by it.
