Hi,
As a past administrator all I can suggest is:
i) attachments are actually against list policy - people should not be sending
them (this used to be noted in a 'welcome note' new members got but I'm not
sure the jiscmail system allows for that anymore).
ii) Keith's machine is probably infected - a 'spoof attack' or id theft would
not necessarily send to people/lists on his own email lists as we have all seen
iii) the listing of who are the current 'maintainers' and their email addresses
may well be out-of-date
iv) balancing ease of communication and the annoyance of spam, bounced emails
(only the sender gets these anyway - they are more a function of the recipient
systems rather than the list), etc. is not always straightforward
v) some of the things requested may not be possible given the list software.
