You know what would be super.. In Privacy Options > Sender Filters, the four fields titled "List of non-member addresses whose postings should be [accepted | held | rejected | discarded]" should be able to accept Mailman list names in addition to plain old e-mail addresses.
Example: My Mailman server holds an all-students lists and an all-employees list (subscriber lists for both are updated nightly with sync_members; and can be quite dynamic at the start of the semesters). We'd like to say "If you are a member of all-employees, then you may post to all-students. Otherwise, reject." In essence, it's an announcement-type list; but instead of just a handful of static auto-accept addresses, we have thousands of dynamically changing addresses. Similarly, a company might have a Cabinet or "executive management" list which might serve as as a normal mailing list AND also as an auto-accept list for a employees or peons list ;-) I'm currently doing a list_members on my employees list, and pasting it into the auto-accept textbox in students.. its a pain. -- Robert Carsey Sr. UNIX Administrator Monmouth University W.
