I don't think that this list accepts email from non-subscribers.
However, it is entirely possible that e-mail addresses have been
harvested from archived messages. The archive at
http://www.softwolves.pp.se/misc/arkiv/cbm-hackers/
obscures the email addresses a little, but I guess that the bad
guys can program simple search&replace patterns.

If by "we" you mean Internet users, I can confirm that. I remember
getting my first spam around 1993 or 1994.
