Perhaps it's time to talk about making the main djgpp list
subscriber-only?  My listserv allows this - anyone on *any* local list
can post, and there's one list just to hold your posting address if
it's different than your delivery address.

The only drawback is that new djgpp users will find it harder to post
their initial questions to this list.

The alternatives, though, are to just live with the spam that gets
through my filters, or make non-subscribers' emails require approval
(i.e. delay).

Of course, I can't do anything more about newsgroup postings.

COmments and suggestions welcome.
