Save your breath. This issue comes up regularly and is always ignored.

This is indeed the only list (among dozens I subscribe to) that is broken
in this particular way, but no one is interested in fixing it. You see...
you must be confused or doing something wrong ;o)

So, if you want to be able to send to the list (as I do occasionally) then
you have to delete the spam mails from your inbox as they roll in, or
unsubscribe and re-subscribe when you want to post. Otherwise you
can just unsubscribe and forget all about it (not a very good solution
either )o:

Hmm. Having to delete all of those abiword-user spam mails has made
me kind of bitter about this over the past few months.... Oh well.
