There's a fair amount of spam going to pear-cvs. Could we get the challenge-response system on it, similar to what's on ther other lists?

Here's my procmail recipe for dealing with the CVS list spam :0

* ^(To|CC):.*pear-cvs@lists\.php\.net              {

:0: * ^Subject:.*\[PEAR-CVS\] cvs: $LISTS :0 |spamassassin -r :0 /dev/null } Enjoy, --Dan

However, I elect to read all of these lists as a newsgroup, which means I can't do that. Also, the other PHP lists are already doing challenge-response. Would it really be that hard to add it to the pear-cvs list? People usually say to use filterihng, but that doesn't cut down on all of the wasted bandwidth and processing time re-sending the spam to the entire list entails. -- paperCrane <Justin Patrin>
