[as-devel] spam

It looks like the host for this list (crystaltokyo.com) has upgraded
majordomo to a new version. Normally I would be happy about this, but it
seems that there is no restriction on posting to the list now, and spam
has started appearing. This is a Bad Thing (tm).
I've added "restrict-post=as-devel" to the config in an attempt to fix the
problem, and this solution appears to be working. A test by a non-member
address results in a bounce.
Thanks to those who notified me personally; although I *did* notice the
spam, the amount was very small and the fix to majordomo sufficiently
non-obvious that it took some complaining to get me to fix it. My
apologies to everyone on the list for taking so long. None of us like
spam.
