It is FSF policy that GNU lists be open in order to solicit bug reports from non-subscribers. I have installed a simple anti-spam filter (bogofilter in my case) which reduces the amount of spam I receive to about a message per day vs 100+ spams per day, with practically no false positives. I suggest that you do the same since there are many other sources of spam. Rather than closing the list, it would be appreciated if the FSF folks would install a anti-spam filter on their mail server in order to discard obvious spam before relaying the mail. This is easy to accomplish.
