Could we implement some sort of spam filtering on the mail server
for gborg? The dbdpg-general list is being flooded with spam, and
even a simple SpamAssassin filter with a relatively high number
would drop the number by quite a bit. I'm having to clear 100+
messages out of the mailman queue every few days now.

What's the problem? Just leave them there and let them expire.

(1) As far as I know, they don't "expire".
(2) There are legitimate messages that need to be approved
occasionally. If there weren't, we could simply drop all
messages from non-subscribers.

Speaking of subscribing, how does one subscribe to avoid the
moderation delay? I receive the mailings but all of my postings
are delayed.

The information on the dbdpg-general list, including how to subscribe,
can be found here:

Ummm, one thing to note, we don't have spamassassin set to auto-kill
anything, you have to setup some sort of filter on your end for that ...
with Majordomo2, we have it as an access_rule, but I don't know how to do
it with mailman ...

Mailman has a way to do this. If not, I'll let you know. :)

Yes, I noticed that while spamassasin marks email as spam, it still
forwards it to the recipient. I had to add a rule in my spamassasin
filter to delete those marked as spam.

I've got it working within Mailman, and it seems to be working well: the
queue this morning has 2 spams and 1 real message, which is a vast improvement
as the old ratio was more like 70:1.
The dbdpg-commits list still seems stuck, however. I'm ccing the admin
for that list as well.
