Sorry, but the fact that so many list owners are encountering problems with
spamming is just one more indication that its a real problem.  The fact that
you're not bothered by it may simply mean that you're better adjusted than the
rest of us.  Spamming is a problem across the net, will continue to be a
problem, but the pressure exerted by the community against the practice is
definitely having an effect.  There'd be much more of it if we didn't make our
position known.
 
I hope the discussion continues, and that list owners can get organized for a
concerted protest.
