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.
