spam to bug-bison -- mailing list changes

[Bob Proulx]

bug-bison subscribers,

You may have noticed an increase lately in the amount of spam to the
bug-bison list.  If you have local filtering in place you may not have
noticed.  But looking in the archives for a previous posting would
reveal the noise there.

I am enabling additional spam filtering on this list.  It will be
configured similarly to bug-gnu-utils and many others.  This will
reduce the amount of spam forwarded by this list.

Non-subscribers will have their messages held for review.  This review
is helped by sending these messages through spamassassin for automated
classification.  Non-subscribers may still post messages to the list.
Infrequent posters may have their messages delayed.  Active members
will have their address added to the subscriber whitelist.  In
practice most people won't notice.  This configuration has been used
to good result on the bug-gnu-utils and other lists.

If you have any questions please feel free to contact me.  I have
changed the list owner address from the overwhelmed generic gnu.org
site list manager address to myself so that I can give the list
improved attention.

Bob
