I too am in favor of moderating the list, and not just because it would
eliminate junk mail.
As I mentioned in a posting a few months ago, it is beneficial to everyone
on the list if requests for corpora are always followed up with summaries.
Moderating the list could enforce this, or at least encourage it.
