I am happy to change the settings for this list, but then it will be
different from most other lists. Lets have a poll and follow the
majority. I will stay neutral!
For some reason I had it in my head that the main osm-talk list had
replies set to go to the group. Anyway, I think it can be useful to
have that as the default (especially for small lists). It depends
what you're used to though!
Btw, could a couple of people also offer to be admins for the list
and get to see all the exciting spam offers (of the normal limited
variety!) and ban the posters of these messages, oh, and also very
occasionally spot a genuine post. To give you an idea of the size of
the problem we get about 1 spam message a day.
I'd be happy to help out. How does managing the spam work with
Gmail (which tends to filter out spam anyway)? Do you have to turn
spam filtering off for e-mails sent to the group (in order to be
able to spot and ban people)?
Thanks. You don't get the spam, you just get a summary email that
looks a bit like this (from which I have replaced the real email
addresses with xxx). My email comes through Gmail too:-

P.S How many people here are going to SOTM? Maybe we could have a
mini transit meetup?
Sounds great. I am heading there today.
