The spam ratio on LKML is so low that I think this cure would be

have absolutely zero tolerance for spam just filter locally?
Given the volume of valid email on the LKML it took me all of 3 days
to get a fresh install of my mail client's bayes filter trained to a
<5% false negative rate and a <0.5% false positive rate.
Theoretically a similarly tuned bayes filter on vger with a web-
interface for people to vote on spamminess would allow us to fix any
remaining problems; but the spam levels are so low already; why bother?
