I'm not a pro when it comes to mailman. So, I couldn't give explicit
answers. Anyways, I found the following articles which might possibly
help you:

* Mailman Administrators FAQ
  https://blink.ucsd.edu/technology/email/services/lists/admin/faq.html
  (In particular, the "List moderation and spam" section)

* Mailman: List Configuration Options
  https://blink.ucsd.edu/technology/email/services/lists/admin/config.html

* HOWTO Deal With Spam as a Mailman List Owner
