Hm.  Lots of spam lately.  Is there any spam filters that may be
applied to the mailing list, or is that a lost cause?

The only full-proof way is to accept posts from subscribers only, but
that of course has its own downside.

Non-subscribers could be verified somehow.

    - Through moderation.  But that requires a human.  My guess is
      that non-subscribers post to ding infrequently though.

    - Through a challenge/response mail, similar to how MLMs confirm
      that a new subscriber can be reached.  This may require some
      custom hacking.

The mailing list software used by the sources.redhat.com mailing
lists, lets you register for posting, by sending mail to a
mailinglist-allow@somewhere address (similar to
mailinglist-subscribe@somewhere, and mailinglist-unsubscribe@somewhere).
	<http://sources.redhat.com/lists.html#rbl-sucks>

The software they use is a combination of qmail and ezmlm-idx:
	<http://sources.redhat.com/lists.html#what-software>

However, some people, eg. me, aren't subscribed to the mailinglist,
but have instead just added the foreign group
nntp+news.gnus.org:gnus.ding, and read and post, using this group.

That's a possibility...

And on news, we can cancel spam, so it's less of an issue there.

Wouldn't TMDA work here?  Subscribers could be automatically added to
the whitelist; others would have to respond to a confirmation message
once.

Yes, it would work.  Some people find this sort of thing disconcerting
though.  I guess Lars should decide what to do in the end.

Ideally, TMDA would read both the subscriber list as well as an
additional "whitelist", so that only non-subscribers would have to
confirm their posts (and only once).

If you want to see how this would work, send a test message to
<jason-tmdatest@mastaler.com> -- assume the confirmation text would be
tailored to the mailing list.
