how to deal with Google Spam on packagename@packages.debian.org



Hi,

some moron has subscribed atop@packages.debian.org to an arabic
lanugage Google Group and the package tracker address is therefore
swamped with multiple arabic messages per day. There is an unsubscribe
link in the messages, but I refuse to create a Google Account for
atop@packages.debian.org to be able to unsubscribe (the link leads to
a page saying "You don't have permission to access this content - For
access, try logging in").

Is it possible to have some filtering functions on
@packages.debian.org mail addresses? Who is postmaster for that
domain, who can I talk to to address this situation?

N.B.: While @lists.debian.org has a pretty solid grasp on spam, really
great work, a sizeable amount of my incoming spam that manages to get
past my local spam filter comes via @packages.debian.org and
@tracker.debian.org addresses. This is a general problem, the
unresolvable subscription of package addresses to Google Groups is
just the latest incarnation of this problem.

Is there a possibilty for a general solution or maybe at least a pain
reducing method?

Greetings
Marc
