The lack of held message notices to the poster and the list admins when
emergency is in effect is intentional in MM 2.1 The docstring for the
handler says
```
"""Put an emergency hold on all messages otherwise approved.

No notices are sent to either the sender or the list owner for emergency
holds.  I think they'd be too obnoxious.
"""
```

However, Mailman 3 does notify the poster of an emergency hold.

I already did the above, however my intention was that if anyone 
continued to send email after the announcement, they should get an 
auto-reply saying that "Due to emergency maintenance, your email will 
not reach the group"

I guess that's not an option, but hopefully will be implemented in version 3

Set General Options -> emergency to Yes.


If so, can there be an automatic message sent to all members about 
this suspension?


Posters are not notified when their post is held due to `emergency`.

What you need to do is send your announcement to the list and then set 
`emergency` or set `emergency` first and post your announcement with 
an `Approved: ` header or first body line.
