Bill Fassler spake unto us the following wisdom:
> I'm sure everyone has noticed the annoying SPAM that is now being distributed by the mailing list.  Is someone working on stopping that?

Yes, I'm working on it right now.  I'm in the middle of a move, or I
would have already noticed it.

I'm not sure why, but our spam volume just increased a bajillion fold,
and a couple slipped through.  Unfortunately, with bayesian filtering,
once one slips through and is marked good, the next is more likely to
do the same.
