85% effective.  The problem is that this list is archived (WITH MY RETURN
ADDRESS!), so that if I have to post using my name, someone using a web
scanner can get my address to spam me back, and I can't post here without
giving it out.

If you are going to require me to use my subscribed address to post here,
then please have the archivers blind the return address enough to stop
bots from grabbing it - e.g. by adding html so there would be font
changes or italics or bolds, tzeruch(em)@(/em)ceddec.com and without any
mailto: - right now, flora.org has to be a goldmine for the people who
compile spam lists.

I say 85% since I still get spam from a few sources which aren't on my
block list, most often from an ISP who is being hit by a newbie or
malicious spammer.  I send full headers to the appropriate abuse reporting
places.
