For the past few months my mailman (2) installation with a dozen lists on it 
has been convinced to email bomb various random people out there from the 
list-bounces@ address.
I have daily cron jobs that clean this junk out of my postfix queue, as most 
destinations rate limit me.  It's not helping my email reputation at all :-(
At first I thought that this was some kind of email amplication attack.  After 
some puzzling, I realized that these were subscribe attempts coming in through 
the web interface.
Sigh.  An upgrade to mailman 3 has been in the works for awhile, but it's one 
of those things best done on a really rainy November when there is nothing else 
you can do.

Are there easy ways to add a CAPTCHA to these old mailman 2 pages?
