no, the problem is that the lists are open and people who are NOT on this
list can post spam to and through this (and the -dev) list. If the list was
closed to subscribers only, the amount of spam would be reduced if not
eliminated because you'd have to be subscribed to spam the list and can be
tracked as a result.
