I think 1 spam per thousand, is 1 too many. I'd close the lists.

Actually at this point php.net runs with a link to spews and I can
not
get off the list! I had signed up 6 or 8 months ago (when I was
interested in PHP)
but now all of my mail bounces. I have never spamed, but some moron
had at my provider
about 4-5 months ago, and I get punished for it.
As far as spam on the lists, maybe it is just me, but I only see
maybe 3 or 4 per 1000 messages.
I live with that.
(Now if I can just get the Casino's to stop spamming me via
SnailMail, that would be nice!)
