Alsa mailing list problems (again)

Alsa mailing list problems (again)

[Adrian McMenamin]

I am now being forced to resubscribe to this list again and again and
again because my sendmail is set up to refuse to relay spam.

What is the problem about getting some additional filters added to this
list? The list may remain open but there is absolutely no reason why it
should relaying viruses and phishing emails!

I think we should just make it subscribers only again.  NOTHING has been
done about the spam problem despite repeated complaints.  I'm afraid the
spam has driven away many, many readers which is very bad for ALSA.

We can add a spam filter at least between *@alsa-project.org and
*@lists.sf.net.  Then 80% of spams appearing here could be cut out.

Jaroslav, is it feasible?
