The connection would of course only be the origination. Which, if one thinks about it, could have easily been sidestepped by Durova, by simply CC:ing the original e-mail to every subscriber, instead of making an obviously off-topic post to the list. (Unless we are to believe that such postings were the normal fare of the list, which I do not.)
The email specifically references "this list" that "they" don't know about, though, and refers to the Miltopia block, so it's hard to believe that alleged problem users had never been discussed on the list before.
No, it is not at all hard to believe, and I do so believe. I do trust many of the people on the list, and think they have better sense than to participate in such behaviour.
The fact that Durova referenced those things, reflects directly on her, not the list. There are many lists that have off-topic posts on them, and a single off-topic post does not tar the entire list.
