Hi,

Is there something weird going on with the lists?

I ask because lately there has been spam showing up rather frequently,
something that happenned only very ocassionally. Has there been a
change from human moderation to robotical approval of messages?

Also, my last auto-mails to pgsql-committers have been held for
moderator approval. Maybe I should subscribe-nomail the @postgresql.org
account to the list so that it doesn't happen ... but I wonder why isn't
it working like it was before?

Not meant to criticize anyone -- I'd just like to adjust my config if
there's need to.

I'm not seeing this here. Can you point to a specific message on hackers?
The only list I see that has spam is pg-press.

Doh! I understand what's happening now. The problem is that some spam
arrives to pgsql-es-ayuda-owner(at)postgresql(dot)org with Cc: pgsql-hackers,
and I have a procmail rule that redirects that to pgsql-hackers before
the rule that redirects it to the pgsql-es-ayuda-owner mbox. The
solution seems to be to put the -owner rule before the others ...
sorry for the noise.
