Bastien, assuming you're either still on the list or somebody knows
how to reach you, I just found I received a spam message 5 days ago
from what appears to be your account 'bastien.guerry@free.fr', which
I'm guessing is at the French FSF. Thought you'd like to know. I can
forward it to you if you want. It was cc'ed to several recipient
addresses.

Do you have reasons to believe it was actually from that address? (email headers are very easy to spoof)

:) Not quite. "Free" is just the name of a private telco in France.

Yeah, this is known as a "joe-job."  Never trust any headers in spam
except the ones that come from your mail server.
