What makes you think these are "lists"? Simply the fact that they're addressed to the Mailman machine? Or are they decommissioned lists or something like that? In general, spammers often seem to pick random mailboxes or common ones (like "webmaster"), or ones that appear on websites. A computer users' group once posted "Our meeting will be held in the seminar room at sponsor.com" (the familiar name of the company, like Amazon.com), and sure enough, a couple of spams to "r...@sponsor.com" were received. For spam filtering, besides SpamAssassin, many Mailman lists use SpamBayes. (SpamAssassin is the most popular, but SpamBayes uses a somewhat different approach, so might catch spam that SpamAssassin doesn't.) ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://wiki.list.org/x/AgA3 Security Policy: http://wiki.list.org/x/QIA9 Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org
