I would read the small print. We currently have 100 messages/month to
a closed list. Once it is an open list, and well publicised, the
amount of spam will increase dramatically. I personally get 100-200
spams per day. Does this 1-8 posts per day include or exclude spam?

However, thanks for doing a good job so far.
