I understand the frustration Miel. I had a private message from someone else saying exactly the same thing. My conflict is that if I don't include the list then it's no longer a public statement. In a recent case I was able to point to two previous archived occasions the spammer had been told their actions were unacceptable and therefore, no, we wouldn't be removing the block after their third message. Our systems team tells me that automatic blocking isn't possible (although I'll share this with them again and check). Basically we want the list to be as open as possible and used for technical discussion so there's a limit to what we can do. It's worth saying that several times a week there are messages that do get blocked (I have a dashboard that lets me block mails from people not subscribed to the list). In response to your suggestion, I'll try not including the list when sending the 'unacceptable' replies for now. The number of CfPs posted here has fallen dramatically, which was the intention of course. We'll see whether not making my replies public is as effective.
