I am a moderator on this list, and Mailman (the mailinglist software) catches 90% of all spam sent to this list, as well as virii. I am looking into methods for further reducing the amount that gets through. Moderating *every* message on this list is not practical however. I am not going to click "approve" 150 times a day.
Wouldn't it be OK to allow only subscribed people to post to the list?
I prefere open lists where everybody kann post. Sometimes you just want to sent one message to the list, sometimes you post from another account. I have an idea how to stop spammers: Only subscribered people can post, if someone who is not on the list wants to post he has to include a magic word in the subject. This way unsubscribed humans can post and spam robots can't. I don't know if mailman can do this. thomas (Sorry if the references header of this mail is wrong, I have to use a webmailer)
