[Important] New behavior for spam handling on this list
Dear all, Until now, the handling of the lists was like: * lyx-devel and lyx-users were set to automatically reject non-members * the other list would put the messages on hold, so that I had to have a look at all the moderated mails (~80 spams and sometimes a message) daily. Now that I have been made aware (by the OSUOSL people) that there is actually a X-Spam-Flag header we can rely on, I am trying something new on this list: - members can post as usual; - spams are automatically discarded; please notify the list if a message of yours just disappears. I decided to only apply the changes to lyx-devel because it is easier to experiment here; - remaining non-member posts are held for moderation. I am not sure here whether I should reject or discard mail. What I am wary of is that a real message could be silently mistaken for spam. This is why I wanted to use reject, but OTOH it adds useless traffic and creates the risk of having us marked as a spam source. I wanted to apply the spam filtering only to non-members, but this is not possible with mailman (at least only globally). Comments welcome.
