Thank you for the suggestions guys. That sounds like an easier why to do 
things. I will see if I can implement anything like that.

I'm guessing this is cPanel, but maybe not. It makes a difference. I
don't know why the link gives a 404. Possibly the link is to something
like http://myserver.com/mailman/admindb/mailman_myserver.com and the
list name is actually mailman_otherserver.com.

Every Mailman 2.1.x installation has a site list, usually named
'mailman'. How this is configured in your mailman depends on various
things like how Mailman was installed (cPanel, distribution package,
source, ...), whether or not this is a shared server, etc.

If you can access the admin interface for this list, you could put
something like

^.*

in Privacy options... -> Subscription rules -> ban_list to prevent
anyone from requesting subscription to the list.

If you need more help, please provide a copy of one of these messages
with all headers and more detail about how Mailman was installed and
what the server configuration is.

[Mailman-Users] bogus subscription requests

[edi...@visionscience.com]

I maintain a few lists using Mailman. Everything works fine. Except that with 
some regularity I receive subscription requests for the list 
mail...@myserver.com . The messages announcing the 
requests offer me a link to process the request. The link yields a 404 error 
message.
So far as I know, no such list exists.
When I check the overview of my lists, it is not among them.

I am aware of the concept of a sitewide list, and maybe this is that. 
But the question is: how can I reject these subscription requests, or can I 
just ignore them?

Using Mailman version 2.1.23

[Mailman-Users] Moderator requests pending

[Ralph Johnson]

I am the administrator for a walking group and I received an email message
that there was a moderator request waiting for my attention.

I went to "Tend to moderator requests" and deleted the message.

I am still getting daily emails telling me that there is a message waiting
my attention, but there isn't. The offending message was deleted and no
longer appears in the Pending moderator requests list.

How do I stop the daily emails.

Regards

Ralph
