Most of the spam I've seen get through is actually obvious from the
subject line. I've seen more posts by people who weren't subscribed and
asked to be cc'd than I've seen spam. Making the list subscribers only
would only hinder the the lucky spammers, and stop more people genuinely
asking for help.
I have seen more spam in the past few weeks, but it's better than
google. For some reason, even though I don't speak anything other than
English, email with Asian characters is not spam.

Happy hump-day,
We have an opportunity with an RTB partner to monetize
INT Geo's; UK, CAN, AUS
Video: (Pre-roll, mid-roll and post-roll)
If list write access was changed to Subscribers Only:
- List could silently discard such spam.
- Postmaster@ (& webmaster@ weeding web archives) would have less work.
- Less individual need to select spam phrases to copy to personal filters
(& less time searching WTF dialect American above meant in English ;-).
Newbies would be told "subscribe before posting" in all of:
/etc/motd
http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions
Automatic list bounce response.
Only clueless, lazy, & spammers might be lost. A net gain.
Cheers,
Julian
