Since not everybody here speaks French, here is a very short translation
of that spam. My purpose is not to make more advertisment to it but to
let you know the danger.

Could the list administrator check its log and give us the full headers
so we can complain?

That software allows you to spy on your friends who are on the Internet.
You can see pixel per pixel what is on their screens. [...] You send a
small file to the person you want to spy, telling them it's a game or
anything and then, each time this person connects to the Internet, he/she
is quietly connected to our server.
Robot Mailer 1.0
That message [the spam] was sent with that software. It can send 5 000
news [sic] per hour. This is the most powerful broadcast tool on the
Internet.
