wow guys,
I've been signed up for this list for about a week and I've noticed a ton of spam coming in now. I guess I should have used a different address than my main one... I could stand the traffic, (and this is a high traffic list!) but all the spam, no way.

If redhat can't control things better than this on their lists, I'm not sure I want to use fedora.

You must be new on the net...

This is a public list. There is no way to prevent spammers (or anyone else) from harvesting your address for their own purposes.

As for "volume of spam", I am not certain what you are complaining about. I get next to no spam these days. Little, if any are posted to this list.

But then again, I use greylisting on my mail server and that kills 90+% of all spam my mail server receives. Spam Assassin gets most of the rest.

You are not encountering a problem with Fedora, you are encountering a problem that exists with e-mail lists as a whole.
