I've now tidied up the remaining messages, so there are about 6 new ones (for now -- spam was still arriving as I did this). For a couple of those the attachements will need unpicking and decoding.

Yes, they have been *much* less leaky for quite a while:

It's me as admin and Marc Schwartz as volunteer moderator,
for all messages from people not subscribed to R-devel.
This time (US morning), it was Marc who manually approved many
dozens of messages.

I still hope that your non-human filters can relieve the human ones....

As it turned out there were 560 messages by the end of the day. I've managed to cut that down to about 150, using brute force on the repository, and even that is mostly spam. However, the remainder will still have been forwarded to r-devel.....
