Re: [Mailman-Users] newsletter with mailman

All you need to do is set all users to 'moderated', set the reply-to to you 
(not the list or the poster),
and disable posting by moderated users.  You can join the list and turn off 
moderation for your self OR 
add you E-Mail address to the list of non-members that can post to the list.

All of this can be done with the web interface.

Dear all,

I need to create a read-only mailing list, and users can't post to list
and just read news.By the way, i only have mailman web interface, no
cmd.
Before any help, Thank you 

Yours,
Mohsen

There is a web page in the faq about this: 
http://wiki.list.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=4030685


The essential basics, make sure all new subscribers are moderated, and 
never remove them from moderation (so they can't post). Then if they do 
post the messages will be held for review (so you can reject them), or 
you can set up filters to automatically reject them (though the reject 
message will not be very helpful).

This method of posting to a 'newsletter' list is insecure. Any list
member who sees the address that posts are From: and wants to post can
just spoof that From: address in his own post. Also, random spam From:
the authorized address and To: the list will be accepted.

The secure method is to leave everyone moderated and post with an
Approved: header as discussed in the FAQs at
 and .
