Not sure if this is what you mean:

In the old RT times, I had a "bogofilter" based spam filter running. This
worked
really well. We could set up something like this easily, too (I would use
"my" GDF
server for filtering to have control over it since I don't have ssh access
on lists.osgeo.org).

Only http://trac-hacks.org/wiki/EmailtoTracScript or likewise is needed on
trac.osgeo.org.

PS: I also find it abuse to copy someone else's emails to trac. At least
please don't
randomly post on trac or via email... I'll stop to do the copy-paste job now
for others.
