Thank you for your feedback!

After alking with my fellow postmasters at the other Universities in Norway, I 
think I end up with rejecting spam like I do today, but silently dropping spam 
from adresses that look like mailinglists. Something like this (need to add 
regexp for VERP):

action_bounce("Spam-score ($hits) too high") unless ($Sender =~ 
/^(.*-request\@|owner-.*\@|.*-owner\@)/);

Maintaining yet another whitelist with addresses to offending list-servers 
will not work. When users are unsubscribed it is already too late.
