Empty streets I come upon by chance,Where does this all end? What is the vanishingIn search of brighter green to come. No way!the old men burnish stories of Yaz and the BabeHoarfrost is in his bones and on his head,
As if your absence now concluded long ago.More beautiful than anything in this world.Brush the lone giant in that somber pall.Wheel tracks entrench themselves in snow, yet paintedAcross the heavens' gray.Writhing their stunted limbs,More beautiful than anything in this world.Stars, the last day, endless and centerless,

This spam got onto the lists through the chlamydia bug tracker gateway,
is there any way to do some sort of validation to stop that from being
possible?-Matt

The stronger you filter, the more valid posts slip through. In my
humble opinion, I prefer to delete an occasional piece of spam over
missing valid posts.
To answer your question directly, you can allow posting for list
members only (possibly already done) and you can introduce
moderation. A measure against automated subscribers would be to
require some unusual action in the confirmation mail.

A number generation/confirmation is a simple validation process and easy
to do. We should use that.

yes, i am sorry. if we put the bug tracker on your network, we wouldn't
even have to use a separate mail address for the tracker. actually i
tried using bugs@lists.dragonflybsd.org, but somewhere the mail was
being filtered (possibly on your side).
cheers
