Probably you should start reading the posts that are actually _not_ spam.
If you did, you'd know that this was a one time problem and has been resolved.
Sean personally replied to this.

Probably you should not make mountains out of molehills and not make
such a fuzz about mere nothing.
Several mailinglists (also debian and Co.) received that shit - in
this case it hasn't even reached the list, this means that it comes
from a not even registered 3rd party user and is in the review queue.
joejoe at users.projects.openmoko.org is the list admin for your project,
I assume that's you.
So you are getting this requests, just deny them, filter them, or ask
the projects webmaster ( webmaster at projects.openmoko.org ) to check
the global filters.

You are not getting spam by projects.openmoko.org, you're getting spam
by external people to the list you administrate. As you are
responsible for this, I think you can even completely deny requests
from unregistered users.
