Thanks to those who have sent me the info on the list. I've reported it for "spam" and "other" -- unfortunately Google doesn't appear to let you add any comments.
If anyone is still a member of the list and they make the membership list available check to see if this "Russavia" is russavia.wikipedia@gmail.com
All I am seeing there is:
"You must be a member of this group to view and participate in it.
Apply for membership or contact the owner.
Report this group"
Also, I've left a message for Leigh over on Meta at https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Leigh_Honeywell#Gender_gap_mailing... noting also that I am on moderation on this list. I don't know who did that or why, I wasn't advised about it, but if it was due to this case it'd be great to have that lifted as well.
Thanks.

I got one and thought, "Wait a minute, doesn't that get you into trouble?" I've unsubscribed too. If I was ever going to burn my bridges I would do it in a more considered and constructive way than something like that.

I got one and promptly unsubscribed. I don't do google groups, and every time someone has invited me to one, I've found they were not to my taste.

Someone purporting to be Russavia appears to have added a number of people from this list to a Google Group with a similar title to this list. Wearing my mod hat, I just want to be clear: this list isn't going anywhere, the Google Group is not WMF-sanctioned as far as I know, and scraping list members to add people to a third-party mailing list is terrible netiquette that will get you kicked off this list.
