I worked up a straightforward patch for gate_news which adds SpamBayes support to that program. This allows incoming Usenet news postings to be checked for spam before foisting them off on unsuspecting mailing list folks.

https://bugs.launchpad.net/mailman/+bug/300176

I've yet to figure out where gate_news is documented. Once I have I'll update that manual and upload a patch.

Feedback is appreciated. After a couple extra sets of eyeballs have been aimed at it I will work with the python.org postmasters to start testing it there.
