I don't think this is worth the trouble. It took me 20 seconds to
reject the first 5 messages, and another 10 seconds to reject the
following 5. And I didn't even care to check whether some of these were
already rejected by someone else (the replies from Majordomo told me
that some were), because it was pretty obvious that they were not valid
for these lists.
