That would be nice, but I believe that it is FSF policy to have

Instead, the situtation is that you are just as likely to miss a genuine worthwhile message amongst the mountain of spam.

FWIW, I look at most of the blocked spam and, if I notice a message that hasn't made it through, I usually forward it on to the correct list.

This isn't a perfect solution, of course, since I'm human, but I don't
think we're losing too much valid email to the spam filtering.

How does one get a list archive cleaned up? This looks very unprofessional and unmaintained:
