Notices that say that the post from the address in
discard_these_nonmembers was auto discarded, or some other notice?

There are 4 possible actions to be taken on a post from a non-member.

Accept - accept the post for the list
Hold - hold the post for review by a moderator - notify the
       owners/moderators in a daily summary and also immediately if
       General Options->admin_immed_notify is Yes. Also notify the
       poster of the hold.
Reject - do not accept the message but notify the poster.
Discard - do not accept the post and do not notify the poster.

The lists Privacy options...->Sender filters->*_these_nonmembers are
lists of non-member addresses and regular expressions matching
non-member addresses. The corresponding action will be applied to
posts from a non-member address that matches one of these lists.

Posts from non-member addresses that don't match one of the lists are
handled according to Privacy options...->Sender
filters->generic_nonmember_action.
