This hurts our reputation as a mail sender and has led to problems > with Google accepting common-lisp.net mail. (Admitted, DKIM was not the only > reason.) > Due to the above, we will change the mailing list setup for all mailing lists: > * No longer add the mailing list subject prefix > * No longer add the mailing list footer > * Add the List-* headers as per RFC-2369, > filtering of mailing list messages can be done using these fields > Change to moderation expiration > ======================== > Additionally, we've found that many mailing lists have been set to not expire > mails in the moderation queue, resulting in a moderation queue of 10-thousands > of mails some more than 8 months old. Recognizing most of these mails are > probably not being moderated because they are spam, we intend to change all > mailing lists which do not expire their moderation queue to expire moderation > requests after 90 days. > Again, the above is an intended policy change.
