In the admin interface, there should be four sub-pages under Privacy
options...

    * Subscription rules
    * Sender filters
    * Recipient filters
    * Spam filters 

If they aren't all there, then this is something sonic.net has done to
their installation.

Does list mail (received posts) have any SpamAssassin headers, e.g.
X-Spam-Status:, X-Spam-Flag:, X-Spam-Level:.

If so, you can filter on those with header_filter_rules which is under
Spam filters if you have it, but see my reply (to come) to your
subsequent post.
