I've not seen anything make to to my inbox from the list that hasn't been
caught by spamassassin.   The posting rules to the list aren't as restricted
as they are to other lists, as it's already been really useful to Cc:
upstream developers (who aren't necessarily on the list) into discussions here,
without having to go approve messages for every post.

I just added some more taboo subjects to the mailman filter, so that might
catch some of those that are slipping through.
