The problem still remains, someone (briteeyes) will still have to check the
"spam" and manually pass on the emails erroneously tagged as spam back to
coder-com@. Maybe I'm wrong, but it seems that at least 75% of spam is of
the repeating kind, the same scams that circulate in waves like the African
former whatever willing to give you millions etc. Simple filters can stop
these, and most email clients allow setting up simple filters. List
maintainers are already burdened with all the bounced emails then get, and
asking them then install and daily check a Spam Assassin type program for
false positives is asking too much.

Or to be even more effective, I had suggested something like
SpamAssassin to user-com@, but that was shot down too. It's a very
effective solution, and can even work with RBLs such as ordb.org.
