My own preferences would be one of these two:

1. Let it be and just ignore the spam.

2. Do some sort of opt-in where your first email redirects you to a
   web page where you self-authorize.  From then on, anything from
   your email address is auto-approved.  I could also auto-approve any
   replies to previous posts (obviously, if you're reading the list
   you should be able to post to it also).
