Is there an option to have mailman ignore anonymous posts and not even

There is probably some way to do that, but I don't know it. But I'm
not sure that that is the right approach in the first place, since
once your server accepts some incoming mail it has certain
responsibilities.
Right now, I am seriously blacklisted by the anonymous posts being
sent by
spammers and mailman trying to send back a message "your post is not
allowed"
You should be doing your spam blocking earlier. Are you using
DNSbl's and or filters to reject incoming spam? If you reject most
of the spam at SMTP time, then mailman will never see the spam in the
first place and you won't have to generate any bounces.

Not enough information. We need altitude as well for setting the
target of a missile.
