This guy's email address can't just be deleted from the list because *we 
don't know what address of his is on the list*. Some address on this 
list is forwarding to peter.whalley at uol.com.br but the address 
peter.whalley at uol.com.br itself is not on the list. It might be easier 
to tell if the challenge-spam actually included the Received: headers of 
the message it was challenging, but it doesn't.

To find the offending address, the list manager would have to send 
individual messages to each list subscriber and find out which one 
resulted in a challenge.
