> Hello again folks. You've all been tremendous help for me recently, but I
have a another question.
>
> I am using mailman to manage a newsletter list (with some other lists -
but that's the primary use), and obviously I don't want to allow public
postings to a newsletter. So I set the e-mail address of the person who
composes the newsletter as the only one allowed to post to the list. So, in
order to protect my users from their users :) I set the list to hide the
sender of the message.

> So here's the problem - the newsletters go out saying they're from
newsletter-owner, and the admin of the list (me) gets all the "Out of
office", "remove me pls!", "undeliverable" et al. This amounts to ~400
e-mails whenever the letter goes out...

You can always change the alias for listname-owner to be /dev/null (assuming
you never want to hear from the users).  If you do that, *please* add in the
footer that reply to's are not read, and make sure they know how to get off
the list!

Another alternative is to use a preprocessor on your email (like Procmail)
and sort out or dev/null the various messages before you download them.
