FWIW, if we seriously want to work closer with the kernel community, this policy should be reconsidered. I know it's additional effort to establish some basic spam filters (unless they already exist anyway), but there is also quite some value in allowing cross-list postings with key communities.

Some kernel mailing lists are "subscriber only" too, probably for the same reason (the linux arm kernel mailing list for instance). People have complained about it, but so far it does not seem to be a problem for the participants to the Linux ARM community. The spammers know our domain (is there a domain they do not know anyway), at any time, we have a dozen subscriptions pending with invalid addresses to lists hosted by xenomai.org. So, if we open the gates, they are going to use them. I have no idea how many posts are rejected right now. What we can propose is to manually moderate the posts by non-subscribers, if this is too much work, we will revert the change, if it happens that there is no spam, we will open the list completely. The xenomai.org domain has some spam filtering already, though I am not sure the mailing lists do not bypass the spam filtering, before opening the mailing list, it has to be checked.

I doubt anyone would want to be a manual non-spam-filter. Without checking we can assume there is way more spam than content, even talking about all the list-traffic. > The xenomai.org domain has some spam filtering already, though I am > not sure the mailing lists do not bypass the spam filtering, before > opening the mailing list, it has to be checked.

I can comment a bit on this; my experience comes from the U-Boot mailing list, which currently has some 2,800+ subscribers, and usually way over 100 messages per day. > I doubt anyone would want to be a manual non-spam-filter. Without > checking we can assume there is way more spam than content, even > talking about all the list-traffic. U-Boot has always been a subcriber-only list. The number of messages that get caught for moderation is small enough that it is not a time-consuming task. Please note that the moderator has many options, including to permanently ACK addresses, so if cross-posting from for example LKML should be a problem, you can always just permanently ACK such addresses when they get stuck in moderation for upon the first posting. This is minimal work, and the poster does not have to subscribe. Our experience with moderation has always been positive, and we never really considered to turn this off.

We are using the default: required_score 5.0 I cannot remember that I've ever seen a false positive with this setting.

If everybody receives this mails, this means that I have not broken the mailman setup in the same move. -- Gilles. https://click-hack.org ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 13+ messages in thread
