Certainly given sufficient hooks in the MTA, you might be able to make various decisions about the acceptability of a message at SMTP time, although it depends on where in the SMTP dialog you want to hook in. There's no magic in Mailman that would prevent that -- a bit of Python would do the trick. It's not something I'd personally develop because by definition, integration is highly MTA dependent, but I'd accept contributions and would be willing to improve the Mailman infrastructure to make things easier (e.g. see some of the re-org I'm doing in the 2.2 branch to move functionality out of scripts and into the Mailman package so that 3rd party Python code can get to it). - -Barry -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (Darwin) iQCVAwUBROBwmnEjvBPtnXfVAQINwAQAgrRAw/HFT3XaX2NlnFLwUm9xyXtSGE5m UBb+uHOPynDZyLjQq4DLM/nHOQ0QNN3a2mOIxYZlJpvcvy11HQEKudhpRoVDxbET WHau682F+KFMH/QBHN7vK9MJlHT7h+G+ZwnBteP/AQuxEPG58TmKtDgLGGMaEKem 97fL4Xos250= =g+pK -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Mailman-Developers mailing list Mailman-Developers@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-developers Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-developers%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-developers/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq01.027.htp
