If, as I suspect, they lost control of their mail client, detecting
impersonation is going to be hard.

I had a brief look through the logs for whether these messages came
through mail, but I can't see a record either way. It's probably
there somewhere.

To prevent things like this we could screen new urls for spamminess,
but that doesn't seem like a critical problem.
