I wonder why there hasn't been a more interactive form of list/email developed and popularized. Automated spam isn't going to be able to circumvent a simple "sender-password" very easily. For example, we see these online-ordering forms that display an image with a distorted password. Or even a known list password would work, i.e., on the OctaveForge web page show the password clear as day. Or even better, personal passwords, i.e., when someone subscribes to a list s/he supplies a simple password that must be supplied whenever an email is sent to the list.
