I used to have the list set to approval-required but it really was a lot
of work.  I now have a lot of spam checks in place, and the majority of
spams do not get through.  I think I get something like 8-10 bounced spams
everyday that don't make it to the list.  Everytime a spam gets through, I
adjust the filters to make it harder for more to get through.
