[Mailman-Users] Dealing with Spam

[Jerry]

I've run into a problem that I'm sure someone must have addressed by now, and I appologize in advance if this is an old thread. (A search of the archives returned so many near misses that I finally gave up looking.) I run a private mailMan list with a little over a hundred subscribers, and each day I must deal with about a dozen spam messages held for my approval. I've read everything I could find, but have not discovered a way to have mailMan automatically delete these messages. The closest I came was in one of the FAQs, where it was suggested that I run a cron script that would delete them. The only problem with that was that the script also deletes subscription requests. (I can't imagine anyone thinking that was a satisfactory solution!) Surely there's a better way! Anyone?     All the best, Jerry
