The list can be set to require approval of new subscribers.  The admins 
could send the applicants an
email asking some simple, inforative questions, and accept or decline.

The biggest problem at the moment is list members who have their 
addresses hacked, so spammers
send stuff to the list which does go out, because as far as Mailman is 
concerned it came from a real
list subscriber.  But it doesn't happen very often.
