I'm no expert on such things, but assume that they are simply better [or less profitable :)] at filtering spam than the diabolical google groups. I'm unsure as to how the main mailing list that is given above works, I'm sure that someone more knowledgable than myself will soon let us know. Regards. Mark Lawrence.
From: Benjamin Kaplan on 25 Jul 2010 23:54 Python-list is comp.lang.python turned into mailing list form. gmane is python-list turned back into a newsgroup. The reason it gets less spam is because it's behind the mailing list's spam filters. Both the mailing list and gmane should see the same amount of spam. which is way less than the original newsgroup/Google Group sees.
