Nobody has yet volunteered to receive and filter by hand all incoming posts to
the mailing list.  (they call this a moderated list)  I'm sure that if someone
was serious about it and could demonstrate that they would be able to devote
24 hours a day to hand filtering, 365 days a year, then the postmaster would
probably set that up. ;-)

the strict filtering rules.

How about:

WARNING - Continuing to pay dumbass ISP's that don't have PTR records for
their
mailservers merely rewards them for doing a bad job and does not provide
incentive
to correct the problem.
