I've found, in managing a host of httpd and apr related lists, that sending
a final closure message, verifying all *.apache.org references to the list
are updated (pointers to archives of dead lists are still worthwhile), and
shuttering the list with no forwarding is most effective.

Otherwise, you mostly manage spam, and the S/N ratio is effectively zero.
