At this time, it sounds like the existing spam countermeasures on the lkml mailing list work well enough that your bincancels were doing more harm than good. That could change in future. At that point, I suspect that the bincanelling would be done at the mailing list. So, I'd say leave bincanceling of linux.kernel off and that'll be the end of this issue (at least until someone specifically requests otherwise). Adam J.
