The Debian Listmasters have spam filters in place, but they don't stop everything. See: https://www.debian.org/MailingLists/#ads > Are they also getting access to our e-mail addresses ? Not to the list of subscribers, if that's what you meant, but if you post to the list you also run the risk of getting the spammers' attention... > Or is it just part of the mailing list, I am confused, when I joined > the "debian-www" lists.debian.org, [...] It is part of most publicly available mailing lists anywhere, I'm afraid. > I am not interested in, nor have any desire to be receiving this > kind of junk.

You can help out by marking spam; please don't forget to add yourself to a month once you've marked all remaining spam - see: https://wiki.debian.org/Teams/Webmaster/SpamClean You can also go directly to the mailing list interface (but then the other reporters can't keep track of whether a month already has received five reports for each spam mail): https://lists.debian.org/debian-www/ > If this is a normal, and the kind of junk that the mailing list is > used for, then please remove me, If you want to unsubscribe, please see this page for instructions: https://www.debian.org/MailingLists/unsubscribe -- Regards, Kaare
