I think you are under a misconception.

I, too, am sick of these ads, but our humble pseudo-moderator is not the 
one to blame.

The love-hounds mailing list is not an ordinary mailing list. There is a 
two-way gateway between the list and the Usenet newsgroup 
rec.music.gaffa. Everything that goes in one, appears in the other (when 
the software is working right).

The moderator for this list and the group does not actually screen posts 
for content, the moderation only exists as a means of getting posts back 
and forth between the list and the newsgroup.

It is understood that love-hounds/gaffa is actually an unmoderated forum. 
There are no expectations for the moderator to do article screening.

So, if you are sick of seeing these ads appear, the best thing to do is to
inform the source of the ad that their action was not appreciated.
