I do get your point. I've got the same problem with the CheckUser-l mailing list. Even though we removed the option to subscribe on our general information page[1] and we automatically reject emails from non-members, we still get dozens of spam via the -owner address. And I have no idea what we can do about it. There is no such option to block spam to -owner.

You all seem to miss the point. The junk that got through was directed at the -owner addresses like pywikibot-owner@lists.wikimedia.orgmailto:pywikibot-owner@lists.wikimedia.org not at the actual lists.
