Notice less spam?

I just (~11:30PM PDT, July 15th 2009) put into place a new source of data for our spam filtering.  Hopefully this will result in less spam getting through to @cpan.org addresses, @pm.org addresses, and into the moderation queue for @perl.org mailing lists.


As with any spam filtering change, there is a risk that we've inadvertently caused legitimate mail to be blocked.  If you notice this, please let us know.

In a few weeks, if all has gone well, I'll give more details on the new spam filtering data.  If things haven't gone well, we'll revert the changes and pretend this never happened.
