Sorry to follow up on my own message but I thought I should qualify the
above statement.

I am not looking for interesting suggestions on how to block spam.  I'm
looking to limit the size of messages to this mailing list.  That is
easily doable using the existing software.  I'm not volunteering to
write a complete spam blocking system based on exciting ideas from
readers of the sources.redhat.com mailing list community.

I'm just trying to use the tools that are available to potentially limit
spam.
