Walter made me a list-admin for Wikitech-l which I

What would you all like me to do? Is there a spam problem, or any other
old business to take care of?
Basically it goes like this:
Every once in a while, somebody sends mail to the list from an address
that isn't subscribed. The mailing list sends the admins a mail about it
with a handy link to the list's admin web interface. An admin goes to
the page, signs in, checks if it's a legit mail or a spam, and if it's a
legit mail clicks the button to let it through. If it's spam, 'e clicks
the button to discard it.
And, that's about it. :)
Very occasionally, some setting may need to be tweaked. You'll also get
notices about addresses which are bouncing and whatnot.
