Isn't it much better in the spirit of the IETF if the lists remain open, but
a technical solution is used to prevent or reduce junk.
You could do this by introducing a signal-to-noise feature/classification
system and/or some sort of feedback/marking process.
Why not apply QoS/CoS to the application layer.

Many lists:

A.) Reject posts from non-members.
B.) Don't allow attachments.

They don't have any of these problems that seem to plague the mailing list
of the brightest minds of the Internet.
