Many?

I think the spam slipped through because it was sent with a fake "from"
as the address of the mailing list itself. Marc has already closed the
hole per my complaint a couple of days ago. However, I think the committers
list could certainly do without the "subscription hint" filter. Marc,
can you disable that bit on the committers list or make me an admin
for that list so I can do it myself?
