Hi Guys

We currently run a hundred or so lists at a university our biggest one (22000 
students at a university) is obviously moderated. bringing the membership up in 
the web interface doesnt work it just times out as it does randomly when trying 
to apply changes, but thats not the biggest problem. even with users moderated 
and action to take when a moderated user is set to reject and action to take 
when a non member posts is set to reject we got some spam t go through. 
allowing 22000 students to decide if they wanted to make friends with some 
russian teenager or something. obviously this is a pretty grave situation. we 
couldnt get into the web interface so we turned emergency moderation on at the 
box. is this a known issue or does anyone suspect what it may be/ is it because 
the list is so large? or that we have so many lists? or is the box under 
resourced? I have no idea what is happening here. any help would be appreciated.
