[Mailman-Users] How to discard spam without review

[George Dinwiddie]

I'd say that's a job appropriate for procmail rather than the mailing
list manager.  Stopping spam is a never-ending quest.  I used to have
a pretty good set of procmail recipes (based mostly on malformed or
unusual headers) but they now catch only a small fraction of the spam.
The spammer are constantly mutating and your recipes have to follow.
This becomes more work than manually deleting the posts.
