Several accounts appear to have been signed up and bits from Usenet and mail
lists have been harvested and sent to me. I see no scam value in it or scams
or anything, so I've basically blocked them at the server.

Well now they appear to be randomly setting email addresses on posts across
the internet, to recieve digests weekly, monthly etc. I could not find an
unsubscribe link just a how regularly you are sent these digests. As I say,
I'm not wasting my time with those with low morals, and have just blocked
them. If thy want to harvest posts from usenet and forums, then let them put
the nails in their own coffin.

Quara.com is a domain which has not been used and does not appear in
searches, so someone is spoofing it. The trail to follow to find out who
is to blame is in the message headers.

Well, they are also spoofing the originating IP then. Either way blocking
them fixes the problem.
