Hey,
I guess all these emails are spam, or a bad joke? Anyway, any idea how to get rid of them? We already have 8 of them...
oops. I didn't even notice those mails on the list as my spam filter detected the mails as spam and sort them into my spam folder instead of the list folder.

Hi, if I recall correctly there's a way to ban a domain name from posting to the list. More info here: http://wiki.list.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=4030555
This is not a solution. I'm not really keen of blocking *my* email address on the list...:).
The real problem is that those spam kiddies use the list address itself as well as my email address in the From header. This is enough for the list to accept the message as I'm subscribed. This kinda sucks (as spam in general.
For now, I enabled rejecting mail based on DNS blacklists. This will hopefully reduce those kind of spam (if it were activated it would have helped but since uvena.de is my private mail server I was a bit hesitating activating it until now. So far I only had it logging so I could verify those mails would have been blocked).
Some time in July, I'll move the mailing lists to the geany.org server (and announce it before), when doing this, I will also check options how to better protect the lists itself against such forms of spam.
