This is problematic. The idea is that the site admin can use these
messages to train some bayesian spam filter, but it is up to the site to
implement such a process. If you want to just ignore them, you could set
up a periodic cron to
rm /path/to/mailman/spam/*
On the one site where this is an issue for me, I'm more selective. I do
# At 11:59 remove 'preserved' spam older than 30 days.
59 23 * * * find /srv/mailman/spam -type f -mtime +30 -exec rm '{}' \;
