I'm seeing 2 messages a day, lately, to c.l.p that are blatant and a bit rude spam (and some would argue this thread is spam), out of about 200-400 messages per day. I just barely deleted one a moment ago, in fact. While that's not bad at all, my other mailing lists (gtk-list, openldap, etc) all get 0 spam per day. Also they are getting annoying mainly because they seem so preventable. They all have the same "from" address. If this was a normal mailinst list, the moderators could unsubscribe that address and prevent it from subscribing again. I'm not at all sure how moderation is working here. I am subscribed to c.l.p exclusively through the mailman mailing list, so I don't ever use the nntp part. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
