anything we do (except completely closing the list)
will require some degree of on-going list management.

Good suggestion, but this simple solution only pospones the inevitable.
Eventaully this list will get hit by more auto-bounces such as this
roguewave.com user. And this doesn't help filtering the direct spammers and
all the viruses this list gets.

So the list maintainers can go on now and block this user, then they may do
the same for the next user, and the next one, and the next one. It'll
become quickly obvious that the maintainers' lives will be much easier if
they block all non-subscribers; that will also block all of the bogus/fake
emails spammers use.
