From which user? Can you forward me the user-name together with the content of the spam-pm via pm?

I'm very sorry to all our friends who has experienced this spam attack.
I hope this will not happen again.

Today I have set the maximum allowed Private Message recipients to 5.
It was set to Unlimited before.
So the spammer took advantage of this setting.
