Hello all,
I have been loosely following the discussion regarding regex in the
ban_list attribute. I now find myself being asked to create a list
which will most likely use the ban_list attribute. So, I have a few
questions.
1. The ban_list attribute is to help prevent unwanted people from
subscribing to a list, however, I want to restrict who can subscribe to
the list and ban anyone else. I have the regex for who I want to allow
to subscribe but there isn't an allow_list attribute. Is there an easy
way of allowing a regex to control who is able to subscribe? Or, is
there a way to easily invert the regex logic and use it in ban_list? As
an example (not the real regex), say I want to only allow @gmail.com to
subscribe to the list but no one else.
2. An additional requirement is to restrict a subgroup of the addresses
from subscribing. In short, I want to allow all @gmail.com addresses to
subscribe except for a known subgroup. Now the known subgroup is in a
Mailman list. So, can I use a Mailman list in the ban_list attribute
similar to using a list in *_these_members attributes? Or, would I have
to modify the code to allow using a Mailman list in the ban_list attribute?
Thank you for your consideration,
Chris
