Sort-of. Have a look at reply_goes_to_list : although that's really not going to help keeping replies on list (and i'm of the view that, except for announcement lists, what goes to the list should have replies coming back to the list). Nor will that necessarily help people in creating new threads. I don't think that's the right approach to your problem: > I've been getting huge loads of spam on my lists' addresses so if u So, why not take preventative action, in this respect? You may want to investigate creating an ACL to raise the threshold of hostility for email addresses that aren't from list-members, for example (it's not something I do, mind: the majority of the -owner mail for me goes into RT, where I use a queue for training my SpamAssassins and Bayesian filters, and then out to my mailbox, for further fine-tuned processing.). That (spam-detection/handling) is something to tackle at the MTA *before* mail gets sent to Mailman. See previous list discussions on tackling spam at the earliest stages. Some sort of Bayesian filtering on list-owner mails, that's fed back could be useful, too. AIUI, some people have found <http://www.jamesh.id.au/articles/mailman-spamassassin/> to be useful. > have this option please tell me how to do it otherwise please consider > adding this feature for it will increase the list's security..
