I am maintaining a list on mailman 2.1.18 on a server I have no control
(actually it is some 1000's km from here). The list is absolutely closed,
reserved to a committee with a small membership which is updated, if any,
every severl years.
In the last days the list is receiving subscription requests from odd
addresses, apparently in couples. When I found two of them yesterday, I
rejected them with a notice "list usage reserved ....". Today I found a
mail announcing two further requests, and when I entered the
administrative interface found two more.
I would like to close completely the list from subscription requests (so
that they can be inserted only by the administrators).
I thought to set ban_list ^.*@.*
Is there any other better option ?
Will the ban_list interfere with existing subscriptions ?
(sent in Bcc to the other list maintainers)
