OK. A quick update on the actions taken so far.

"orn amental" has been:
- unsubscribed from the Apache Tomcat users mailing list
- blocked from re-subscribing to the users mailing list

The offensive e-mail has been reported to:
- Google
- ASF (via president@)

The next steps include:
- talking with my infra colleagues about removing the offensive material
from the archives
- removing the user from any other ASF lists
- blocking the user more widely

Done.

User wasn't subscribed to any other ASF lists.

Blocked from all Tomcat lists.


A search through the archives shows this users was briefly active some
years ago and has been silent since. I suspect a compromised account.

At this point, I'm not sure that there is much more than we can do. The
list moderators are open to suggestions for further actions that could
be taken if anyone has any suggestions.

I have started a discussion within the infra team to see if some form of
filtering of offensive content based on language is possible / practical.
