I believe these are the effect of linkedin harvesting your email contacts, and then a blanket "invite all" link that you can click. Whether it's linkedin who's spamming, or the person who forgot to uncheck certain mailing lists, that's more of a moral debate..

Hi,
Correct me if I am wrong, but by looking at the way the message is created, I think, LinkedIn is acting a kind of spammer these days. Shall we lodge protest against it as a community?
As an aside, can we not automatically delete all messages to haskell mailing-lists whose "from" field contains "LinkedIn" (and the likes of it) in it?
