Unfortunately, the "spam-filter" you're thinking of will also nuke messages from most
mailing lists - including this one. Here's a fragment of the header I got with your
message just now:

X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.75 [en] (X11; U; Linux 2.2.16-3 i686)

Subject: procmail
I'm not "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" of course, but your message wasn't spam.
This approach works reasonably well on a per-user basis IF you, the user, remember to
add rules that match the mailing lists you're subscribed to. Unfortunately, that kind
of maintenance requirement makes it impractical to do this on a site-wide basis.
Filtering spam is a hard problem. :-(
