I have noticed that most mailing lists I take care of have been subscribed by "maillist@roomity.com". So far it looks like a feed, however, I just wanted to raise a flag about it.

Yeah, I saw it too. We'll see. From the site:

"One benefit is that you do not have to sign up w/ your email to the mail lists.

You can find your topic of interest, and view the articles and comments, or post one of your own."

That last one sounds not-so-nice. It might well be a reason to ban them.

It's not much different from gmane. You need the same authorization to post via gmane as the list itself. The same will be true for roomity.
