So it looks like spamassassin is actually ran on fedorahosted before the
mails hit mailman. So I added a header_filter_rules: "X-spam-status:
Yes.*" under Mailman, Privacy options, Spam filters. This seems to weed
out the majority of spam. Hopefully this solves most of the trouble for
now. If too much spam still slips through let me know and I'll see if we
can tweak some more.
