Put a decent spam filter in front of ezmlm. If my smtp daemon won't accept
the mail because it doesn't have a Date header, list.skarnet.org's daemon
can do it. If my spamassassin can reject mail because it scores 50 on the
spam scale, it's so obviously spam that it doesn't need to be relayed.
But if Laurent is not very concerned, then for now we can probably live
with the slightly extra load.
