Re: Spam blocking & list delivery

it seems like the logical solution would be to place the list behind a 
reasonable spam filter or otherwise prevent the list from being used as a 
spam-multiplier.

If you like I would be willing to volunteer my dspam-mysql-postfix mailhub 
rig, or help the maintainers build their own;

Depending on how the spam is being injected into the list, it might be 
better to just disallow posting from non-subscribed addresses.
