Just to receive messages, like most mailing lists.
I would be difficult to filter by list membership, as members often post 
from more than one adresse.

After being on these lists, with the huge volume (more than 50/day) 
since the beginning, and getting very little spam compared with my other 
accounts, I'm beginning to realise that it is probably unwise practices 
of one's correspondants (and correspondants of correspondants) that is 
the main factor of most spam.
Since Mageia contributors would be expected to have wiser email 
practices, and thus exposing themselves to little spam. :-)
