The only issue is poor murphy! D-U gets a hundred emails a day, god only knows how much the other lists get (actually I probably could give you a guess, but I'm not in the mood for it...) plus (still?) hosts the @debian.org addresses. Throw in a filter that requires any more than basic yes/no checks of small strings would be prohibitive... Having said this, I can see a two step plan to solve this--1) move the lists that are most likely to be hit by a trojan (d-u, d-win32, d-www, etc) to another server 2) put filters on that server.
