I am sorry, but I have to intervene here with a comment.
Point 5 is totally unfair. These guys are not here to run a mail server,
but to provide us with an excellent piece of software to do a very good
job in our environment.
Like I said in a previous email and as Sébastien WENSKE said, maybe try
and manage it yourself.

Sorry, this is a stupid suggestion.
1) The spam still makes it onto the list archives - See:
http://marc.info/?l=haproxy&r=1&b=201409&w=2
2) It dilutes the mailing list content by creating a massive drop in
signal to noise (24+ spam messages in the past day?!?)
3) It causes the reputation as a mail sender of the haproxy mailing
lists to be greatly reduced - meaning eventually hosts will reject mail
from the list - legit or not.
4) This is a problem that has been 'solved' on other mailing lists for
at least a decade.
5) It gives the impression to people wanting to use haproxy that the
admin team don't know what they're doing. I've gotten more spam from
this single list in the last 24 hours than I have from the total of ALL
my other mailing lists in the past few months.
If you aren't going to do proper spam filtering, AT LEAST do moderation
of non-member posts. This single action will just about cure the spam
problem.
Its starting to become a joke.

I have no advice on what to do, but I'm a regular reader of the ML and I
receive almost no spam from the ML because it is filtered in a very
efficient way by the Gmail spam filter (I use Gmail).
That can't be a global solution ....

I know that people have strong opinions about this which is why previous
discussions have been a bit "tense", but I think we will have to discuss
this again sooner or later.
I got 16 SPAM mails through the ML in the last 12 hours (and 3 valid
post),
and the trend in the last weeks shows that this is getting worse.
Now, having a some antispam solution in front of the ML requires
maintenance
and will inevitably lead to false positives, thats probably not what
we want
or have the resources to do.
Restricting the list to subscribed user (subonlypost) is not a good
thing
either, however if the alternative is that important topics (from both
subscribed and not subscribed users) are buried in tens of SPAM threads
every day, I think its a small price to pay.
