Maybe it's your AOL account, rather than the list - I don't see that much
spam.

It's really too bad how many people will complain about list admins not
filtering spam instead of using their delete key.  Do you have any clue as
to how difficult it is to filter spam?  Folks who send this stuff have
software that is deliberately designed to not be easily detectable by
automated software.  Try it yourself sometime, instead of insulting the list
admins.
