Hi Jeff,

When checking regular expressions for the accept/block/reject lists (as well as 
other places), I highly recommend this website:


https://regex101.com

Online regex tester and debugger: PHP, PCRE, Python, Golang and 
JavaScript<https://regex101.com/>
regex101.com
Online regex tester, debugger with highlighting for PHP, PCRE, Python, Golang 
and JavaScript.





You can enter the expression you are thinking of using, then test what it 
matches (so you can be sure it matches what you want and not what you don't, 
and tweak it until it works).


Hope this helps!

Subject: [Mailman-Users] better filtering - help?

We've been running a mailman server, pushing more than 45 lists, for as long as 
I've been here, and recently spammers and phishers have found us.

We're trying to find the right combination to filter in the "List of non-member 
addresses whose postings will be automatically discarded." under Privacy 
Options, Sender Filters.  All we've been able to come up with are individual 
domains.  When we try to block
[email protected],   -- while we'd like to block all of .it,  
what we find is we can either do the individual address, or the entire 
spammer.phisher.it domain.
What's the magic combination?

And the hints say use ^, we found * worked for us....   confusion abounds

using mailman version 2.1.20
