I don't see the need for a code of conduct, either. Go with a simple
approach:
1) Have a list administrator. You probably do already since my inbox
isn't full of SPAM. :-)
2) Have the administrator read the list mail.
3) Use common sense. We can all tell when someone is off-topic and
offensive. Anyone who can't shouldn't be a list admin.
4) Based on 3), if the admin decides that enough is enough by whatever
criterion, they can do what is needed--on the lists I moderate it's easy
to force a subscriber's posts all to be moderated.
If people really want community policing, then an email list is NOT the
way to go. I get almost as annoyed by dealing with a string of replies
to an off-topic and offensive post as to the original post. Nip it in
the bud.
