Even simpler is just ^ in the ban list, but yours will work. > Is there any other better option ? Probably not. > Will the ban_list interfere with existing subscriptions ? Only for changes of address in Mailman 2.1. In 2.1, the ban list only affects subscription and changes of address (you cant change an address to one which is banned). However, even an admin can't subscribe a banned address. To add new members, you'd need to first remove the match all pattern from the ban_list and then add it back. This changes in Mailman 3. In MM 3, banned addresses can't post either. -- Mark Sapiro <m...@msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
