I forward this to a global crossing security person.
They said they would take care of it. I believe it has been fixed.
Someone submitted their isecq address to get intrusions emails which was later forwarded to their abuse (auto responder) alias.
If you see it again let me know and I can follow up with gblx.

I complained about this to the intrusions list owner(s) two or three
weeks ago, but haven't heard anything in response.  My take on it is
that a mailing list (ipadmin) has been subscribed to the Intrusions
list, and that some address at Global Crossing that autoresponds is a
member of that ipadmin list.  First of all, it's *really* bad form to
subscribe a list to a list.  Second, if some member of the second list
is an autoresponder, that just compounds things.
