Am I the only person who's tired of all of the spam on this mailing list? Why is this mailing list not set up so that only subscribers to the list can post to it? This has been standard mailing list procedure for several years now.

Spam is annoying, for sure. But I think every now and then spamassassin, or whatever system the board uses, dies, and on those days we get a bunch of spam. Usually, though, it's fixed pretty quickly ... until the next time.

It's quite possible that, as the list members aren't moderated, the sending bots actually sign up. I'm not sure about this, though. I've not tested the list with an unsigned address, either, but it's quite possible you do have to be a member to post.
