Brad misunderstood or misstated what I do. I don't ban the domain (aol.com), I ban the user ([EMAIL PROTECTED]). I know this next gets a little away from Mailman and I can't say for other MTAs but it's simple to do in Postfix: In main.cf: smtpd_recipient_restrictions= ... check_sender_access hash:/etc/postfix/sender_checks, ... In sender_checks: # This file has to be "compiled" with "postmap" - # $ postmap hash:sender_checks # Sender is SMTP FROM argument # [EMAIL PROTECTED] banned for AOL TOS notice - 10/20/05 [EMAIL PROTECTED] 554 You have previously reported requested mail from here as SPAM - you are banned from this server (see http://www.stonejongleux.com/spamban.html - 10/20/05) (note that the above needs to be one line in the actual sender_checks file) -- Larry Stone [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.stonejongleux.com/ ------------------------------------------------------ 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
