Hi!

As SPAM became lately a massive plague, I decided that I have to fight harder 
against them. If you look in the mail headers, it's tagged with a 
X-Spam-Rating sind quite some time already. If the number reaches 1000, it is 
rejected. But there was a lot of SPAM that was quite hard to differentiate 
from normal mails by regular expressions ;(

So I went and made these numbers more aggressive. And the mailing list 
software will hold mails with numers higher than 550 for approvall by the 
list admin. I'm planning on making it a bit more intelligent, but only if my 
time permits. Til then it will happen that the one or the other non-SPAM mail
ends for approval, but no mail should be lost (at most it's rejected and send 
back)

Greetings, Stephan
