    I agree. Spam on this list is quite a problem these days. The only solution I
    can think of is changing this list to a "closed" one - that is, only active
    subscribers are allowed to post.

    Maybe also automatically putting a [AJ] at the beginning of each subject would
    make it easy to see whether a spam came through the list or not.

    Just my tuppence worth!
