The problem is that the list software doesn't block spam sent to it, so
adds Mersenne: to the subject before spamming us all.
So far I've seen two messages sent through the list server, both of which
would have been stopped if the server was configured to reject mail
without Sender/From fields.
I would also suggest adding checks at least for the MAPS RBL list of known
unrepentant spamsites.
