For automake-patches@gnu.org I've counted 8 spams in 2003.
I may have missed one or two, but this looks negligible (<1%).
If you were talking about all the archives in general I've no
idea. I guess it's probably worse on the bug lists since
they are advertised a lot. My favorite is the bug-automake
archive of 2002
http://sources.redhat.com/ml/bug-automake/2002/
at some point during the summer gnu.org activated spamassassin,
and that shows!
