I think so, in comparison to other lists. I'm assuming that ezmlm is being used to manage the lists. If it is, maybe ezmlm-reject[1] could be deployed to - at a minimum - remove messages whose "Subject:" lines include the likes of "You have a new fax" and "Goodbye from our newsletter" and some other notable repeat offenders. Is there any appetite among those 'in charge' here to tackle this? I'm very happy to help, either by compiling data for ezmlm-reject to use based on list spam or looking into other solutions. (I just found mention of ezmlm-reject during a search for 'ezmlm spam', maybe it's not part of a 'default', or the zsh, installation?) [1] http://untroubled.org/ezmlm/man/man1/ezmlm-reject.1.html
