If you want ALL non-members to be able to post to the list then change the setting which is currently telling Mailman to put messages from non-members on hold until they are approved: Go to the list's management pages, then --> Privacy Options --> Sender filters --> Change "Action to take for postings from non-members for which no explicit action is defined. (Details for generic_nonmember_action)" setting from "Hold" to "Accept". Then sit back and wait for spammers to find your list's address: their junk will then be immediately distributed to all the list's members. :-} Alternatively if you only want SOME non-members to be able to post to the list then, on the same page as above, put their e-mail addresses into the "List of non-member addresses whose postings should be automatically accepted. (Details for accept_these_nonmembers)" text box. You can use regular expressions here if you wish. ...And just hope the spammers don't happen to forge messages to your list as being from one of these addresses. :-} Cheers, Mike B-) -- The Computing Service, University of York, Heslington, York Yo10 5DD, UK Tel:+44-1904-433811 FAX:+44-1904-433740 * Unsolicited commercial e-mail is NOT welcome at this e-mail address. * ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq01.027.htp
