It's because I just finished cleaned up the pending moderation requests for the list. It had been badly neglected for some time, that's why you see messages from 2007 showing up. listadmin is still processing so we'll see a few more mails over the next couple of hours. mailman is apparently rather slow when it has to process 3600 moderation requests :-) Johan ___ pygtk mailing list pygtk@daa.com.au http://www.daa.com.au/mailman/listinfo/pygtk Read the PyGTK FAQ: http://www.async.com.br/faq/pygtk/

[pygtk] spam filter
I have hacked support for doing SpamAssassin checks into the mailman mail pipeline on my system. This is mainly an attempt to reduce the moderation load for this mailing list (which often exceeds 10 messages a day -- more than the real messages on the list). Any message getting a score over 10 gets discarded, and over 5 gets held for moderation. Hopefully this will lower the moderation load for this list to a manageable level. If anyone else is interested in the patch, it is available at: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=534577&group_id=103&atid=300103 If your message doesn't go through and you get no notice that it is being held for moderation, then it may have been discarded. Please email me directly if you suspect this has happened. (I may need to adjust this filter a little).

It doesn't by default, but it can be turned on (I just did turn it on). By default it allows anyone to post, but passes messages through a spam filter (which has been catching 99% of the spam sent to the list in the past -- recently closer to 50%), which seems to be good enough for most lists.

[pygtk] spam mails
As a number of spammers have started targetting the list with correctly formatted messages (which mailman doesn't catch), I have switched the list over to member posting only. Non member posts will be held for approval, and I will try to approve all the valid ones in good time. If you post from multiple email accounts, you can subscribe multiple times, and disable delivery for all but one subscription. This will let your messages go through without requiring moderation. I know this is an inconvenience to some people, so I am sorry. Blame the spammers. James. ___ pygtk mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.daa.com.au/mailman/listinfo/pygtk

[pygtk] Spam problems...
Hi all. As you've all seen lately the amount of spam to this list has almost taken up with the amount of posts. Is there nothing that can be done about this? Do we need to start moderating the list? I would gladly help moderating the list if there is a wish for people doing so, and if there are more people than me doing so. (The amount of posts are after all so few that moderating this list will take a maximum of 2 minutes per day. :) FrankRL ___ pygtk mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.daa.com.au/mailman/listinfo/pygtk
[pygtk] Spam problem fixed
I have just changed the pygtk mailing list configuration, so it only allows members to post (I just noticed that one it of spam bounced). If you have trouble posting, it is probably because your mailing address doesn't match the one you subscribed with. If you have problems, mail me directly, and I will see what I can do.
