I don't know if this is possible, but why not just have list subscribers
bypass the SPAM filter. Those people that aren't subscribers will get
the usual filtering applied. Seems to me this would keep the SPAM
situation the same and only inconvenience those non-subscribers that
happen to trigger the SPAM filter. Again, I'm not sure if this is
technically feasible, but it doesn't seem like it would be difficult to
implement.

I would definitely prefer to keep the list open. Making the list
subscribers-only is really annoying to many potential contributors. I
know personally that it is a huge turn-off when I fix a bug in some
code and attempt to submit a patch and then get a bounce because the
project's list is subscribers-only. I'm not going to subscribe to
some mailing list I'm not interested in just so that I can give a
project my work -- and so the project loses out.
