I took over spam filter management for the python.org mailing lists a couple months ago and made a few changes to the way the spam filter is trained. Things seem to be at a reasonable level as far as I can tell (I see a few spams leak through each day), though I wasn't actively reading comp.lang.python/python-list@python.org before I took over the task, so I have nothing to compare with. Does the level of spam leaking through the filter now seem excessive? Is it more or less than in June and July?
