its comming from people that are actually subscirbed to the list, and it is very hard to say if its realy them posting , ESMTP is realy trivial to spoof. I'm doing my best to track down such posts and remov people of the lists if spam is comming from subscribed members repeatedly.

The problem with simply putting up anti-spam filters is that they do brute-force black-listing of entire domains. "Inteligent" anti spam filtering would require moderating the list, and nobody wants that.
