Isn't this list the last place one expects to find spam?

ScanMail Message: To Recipient virus found and action taken.

OK, it's not exactly spam, but still polluting my measly modem.

Wait, I don't see any spamassassin headers on the articles in this
group.

Idea: why don't you use the famed SpamAssassin spam defense system to
reduce spam on this list?  Bet nobody ever thought about that.

All you gots to do is crank the threshold really low, like 2. Most of
us will still pass.  And if we don't, then that's a great opportunity
to debug why, proving you send a reject message.

Or maybe I must ask the owner of
http://news.gmane.org/thread.php?group=gmane.mail.spam.spamassassin.general
where I read it by NNTP to turn SA on for this list instead?

Oh, I see, you all read this list in your home mailbox after it has
passed your personal filters on your 24-hour great internet
connections.  I however depend on a few minute a day piddly modem
connection, so must have it filtered upstrem before I slurp it down by
NNTP.

Wait, this appears to be a SF.net list, so perhaps "we can't slip in a
spamfilter, as we don't own the site"?

BTW, love how you guys just love to quote the whole message in your
replies, the more bytes, the merrier, yummm, headers and all.  Guess
I'm old fashioned.
