If I and/or the other moderators were to allow a fraction of the crap
through to to the list you would not have to ask that question.

Yes, thank you. All committers and moderators are familiar with the link
you provided.

Thanks Marcus. I have been in touch with Google asking them to
investigate. It may just be coincidence, but the flood attack appears to
have stopped, for now.

I would still like to find out from Infra if anything can be done to
improve our spam filtering.

Are the emails actually getting through to the list? Or is this just
moderation emails?

Also, have you seen this?: https://www.apache.org/dev/committers.html#spam

Is there any specific Infra contact who can deal with this, or should I

thanks for bringing this to our attention.

I've set Infra into CC, so that e don't loose time and the first can 
give you an answer what to do as quick help.

Spam hitting the list servers

2015-12-04 Thread Dave
The level of spam arriving on our list servers has been steadily
increasing. A couple of years ago moderators might have to filter a
dozen or so attempted spam posts per day sent to the dev, marketing,
doc, api & users lists. Now this can sometimes be the hourly count.
Today, the dev list server is being hit with a flood attack from a
Google+ account running into hundreds per hour.

Is there any specific Infra contact who can deal with this, or should I
simply submit a general Infra ticket?

Thanks
Dave
