I hope that I don't. I receive no less than 700 spams a day to my regular address (not gmail, which I use for mailing lists), but then again I've only twice gone over 2000 spams in a single day. I can only imagine the efforts used to keep the list clean. Maybe spamassasin, a few hundred procmail filters, and a last swipe with bogofilter for good measure? I don't mean to be pushy, but every day I add another procmail filter based upon what's been getting through (and they still do, I try to err on 'false negative'). Four filters "britney", "spears", "boobs" and "tits" would show the spammers that the moderators are serious about keeping this list clean. I'll go back to reading and not writing now, at least until I get to the point where either I feel that I can contribute, or until I get myself real stuck.
