I'm not sure I follow.  How is it gmail's fault that it is possible
for spammers to use the ruby-talk list?  I just looked through the
first 500 messages in my spam folder and there wasn't a single spam
from any other list.  All the other lists who don't want to require
people to subscribe before posting force their posts to go through a
moderator queue.

What does suck about gmail is I can't match against arbitrary headers.

I see in the headers that we're using SpamAssassin... maybe the
solution is to review it's configuration and make sure it's properly
learning?
