Is it really spam, or just messages that are being tagged as spam?  I've not seen any blatant spam on the list, but I did notice some messages being dumped by my filter.  These turned out to be legitimate messages, but with a " X-RedHat-Spam-Warning:" header that made my procmail toss it out.  

For what it's worth, this message from you was tagged by the list server with a spam level of over 9, and I usually dump anything over 5:

X-RedHat-Spam-Warning: 9.093 (*********) BAYES_99, FROM_ENDS_IN_NUMS,
	RCVD_IN_DYNABLOCK, RCVD_IN_SORBS

I have since adjusted my procmail recipes to accommodate for this:

X-Spam-Status: No, hits=-103.8 required=5.0 tests=BAYES_00,FROM_ENDS_IN_NUMS,
	RCVD_IN_SORBS,USER_IN_WHITELIST autolearn=no version=2.63
X-Spam-Checker-Version: SpamAssassin 2.63 (2004-01-11) on amayatra.os2.dhs.org
