Lista, Carlos, I recommend: If you are concerned about spam on the list
contact the listmasters of it. They are the ones that can address it globally
for the list.

Or… improve your spamfilters. I did not see any of the spam mails you
mentioned, Lista, as my mailserver rejected them on the SMTP level.

Discussing spam topics here just adds to the noise.
