Ah... Although it now works, it also now seems to prevent messages sent to
the "-join" and "-leave" addresses from getting any messages other than the
auto-responder text I've entered. In other words, it seems to ignore emails
sent to the "-join" and "-leave" address (possibly others, but I haven't
tested it). And that's with the rate limiting set to 0.

That is what is meant by 'discard'. The -request message is discarded after sending the customized response message.


I don't really want people to use the "-request" address other than for
receiving the text I'd input into the auto-responder. I want people to be
able to join and leave using "-join" and "-leave" and to receive my text
(not the canned Mailman text) if they should write to "-request". Is there
any way of doing this please, as I'm now getting somewhat confused over it
(and possibly consequently missing the obvious)...

I don't think so without modifying Mailman. If you had filesystem access, you could edit the ~/templates/**/*.txt files, (but those are common to all the lists run by that Mailman instance unless you change how the cmd_*.py files build their responses.).
