I run 2 small lists (both under majordomo).  Recently my lists have been
getting advertisements (usually fairly large messages - @13k) from
non-members soliciting magazine subscriptions.  These always (I am pretty
sure) come from AOL addresses that are deleted after the messages are sent.

My host site is POBOX and I don't have access to the server.  Therefore, I
don't believe that I can make the lists closed to postings by non-members.

Does anyone have any ideas for me?  My listmembers are getting irritated.

Thanks,
Jack
