Kalle, I'm not sure what mailing lists you are referring to. All of the openafs-*@openafs.org mailing lists are moderated for anyone that is not a member of the list. I can find no evidence of spam in the openafs-info archives https://lists.openafs.org/pipermail/openafs-info/2016-May/date.html nor in the openafs-devel archives https://lists.openafs.org/pipermail/openafs-devel/2016-May/date.html As for RT, it does receive some spam which must be filtered by the administrators of the various queues. However, no spam filters are perfect and it is not possible to filter out all spam without also filtering out valid bug reports. The spam submissions are manually deleted by the administrators. Could you be more specific about whose archives you are looking at and which RT issues you believe are spam? Jeffrey Altman
