Well, lets have a look at the facts...

. I'm no longer subscribed yet I'm posting to the list,
  so when you state 'Spammers can subscribe to the list'
  they need not even subscribe, simply harvest your address.
 
. The front page of *this list* located at:

  <http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions>

  states:

  'The subscribers list is only available to the list administrator'

> It is a public list.

Contrast the list statement with your statement: the two seem mutually
incompatible somehow, just sayin'
