Anonymous postings are accepted to my (moderated) email lists as
easily as non-anonymous postings. I don't distinguish them.
Since a human being (me) examines every post before forwarding it,
spam is stopped without preventing anonymity. There is no need for me
to know who is posting the anonymous messages at all -- only a need
for the poster to make sure they are on topic.
