[Mailman-Developers] Auto-rejecting spam

Hi,

I'm a list administrator using Mailman 2.0.

My list is sometimes pretty heavily bombarded with spam.  I can get
95% of it held by enabling holding of postings with indirect headers
(requiring that the list name occurs in the To: or Cc: fields),
however, since this spam filtering never hitherto has caught an
innocent valid poster, I'd like Mailman to automatically reject this
kind of spams without invoking me, the list administrator.

So, I'm asking for a new privacy option to enable automatic rejection
of postings with indirect headers and/or matching a list of regexps.

(I'm not on this list, so I'd be grateful if you include me in the
reply.)

Best regards,
