10 to 20 spam posts per day are prevented by this rule.

And frankly it's totally rediculous to have such a huge CC: list
in the first place, even if the vger spam filter didn't exist.

If you CC: something to netdev, it's going to reach me, you don't need
to CC: me.  If just makes for a dup that I have to delete in my inbox,
so you're actually making more work for me in the end.

That's just one example.
