It happens *all* the time. I've even had one recent virus that managed to get the list address of a 'post by owner only' list into the To: field, and the owner's address into the From: field. 50 times. To a multi 10s of thousands of subscribers list. Pure Murphy - our large lists that are "post by owner only, after confirmation" didn't have any attempts made on them, just the one misconfigured list. :)
