I suspect you are significantly overestimating the amount of work that
list moderation takes. I enabled it for pkg-shibboleth-devel and set
auto-expiration on held messages in Mailman so that I only have to go to
the Alioth list page to approve something that needs to be approved. It's
been in place for a couple of months and other than ignoring the
notifications of held spam, I've only had to approve one post. I just
automatically whitelist anyone that I have to approve, which makes the
problem reduce quickly over time.
You can then apply Bayesian filtering or other anti-spam techniques to the
notification messages from Mailman and not even see most of those.
