Ok. Sorry for the slow reply. I've spent a big chunk of time going through the Groups.io settings changing things up a bit to hopefully reduce the spam. Unfortunately there is no way to bulk apply settings. I have removed the ability for non-members to post to our mailing list. They must at least be a member of annou...@lists.opendaylight.org to post (other than Security). New members will have their first message moderated and then they should be automatically unmoderated after that. I've also added Navid as a moderator.
Let's trial this for a bit and see what happens. Hopefully we'll see a reduction in spam. If there are any other community volunteers that wish to act as moderators, please let me know.
