Hi, we have a mailing list of customers that we use to send out announcements about service problems, bad lines and general information. Nobody should be able to send e-mail to that list except the people allowed to do so. Since e-mail senders are easily forged, we have currently set all list members to moderated (including the people allowed to send to the list, who are also moderators).
When a message goes out to the list, the author sends it, gets back the approval request and approves her own message. People have started to complain that this is uncomfortable. Before we switched to Mailman (2.1, if that matters), that list was managed with a patched majordomo that would only forward a message to this list if the correct password was found in the message's first line (which was then removed from the message before actually sending it out to the list). Is there a possibility to allow Mailman 2.1 to immedately forward a message from a moderator to the list if and only if the correct moderator password is given in the message? If the message doesn't have an "Approved: <listpassword>" header or first line, it should be held for moderation just as any other message coming in to the list address. Any hints will be appreciated. Greetings Marc -- -------------------------------------- !!
