So it looks like someone has decided to use a botnet to subscribe 4000+

best to turn off subscribe until we can find a better solution. This
might be multiple ones as someone seems to be doing every person in
@qq.com <

Well, that's it. They're definitely off my Christmas card list.
Hmmm. After looking, I'm wondering if we can turn off subscriptions via
the Mailman interface. The Googles suggest you have to remove the
page(?!) entirely.
Anybody with stronger Mailman-fu know how to shut off the firehose?
Best,
