Right now by far the most mailman owner traffic I get has to do with
people trying to maliciously subscribe other people to the tor-reports
list.
For context, there are 7462 pending tor-report subscription attempts
currently. And there are dozens of new ones each day.
(These are not real people. There are jerks on the internet who try to
subscribe victims to mailing lists, and one of these groups of jerks
picked the tor-reports list as one of the ways they do it. It's been going
on for years.)
So, I can handle the extra mailman spam -- it's a bit of a nuisance, but
whatever.
But I feel bad that dozens of new people each day around the internet are
getting their first introduction to the tor project in the form of "are
you sure? reply to confirm" mails from our mailman for a list they know
and care nothing about.
I don't want to take away the archives from the world:
https://lists.torproject.org/pipermail/tor-reports/
because they are useful for posterity.
But I want to destroy everything else about the list.
