Only if the people sending the posts know how to do this and know the
list admin or list moderator password.

The first regexp is totally invalid. It would have to be

[EMAIL PROTECTED]

The second should hold any non-member mail from any domain ending with
"example.com". The fact that it doesn't says that the mail is being
accepted before any non-member tests are applied.

What Mailman version is this? Is this perhaps a cPanel or other
modified package?

I have tested this locally by moderating [EMAIL PROTECTED] A post From:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] with envelope from [EMAIL PROTECTED] was held as a
post from a moderated member, and a post From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] with
envelope from [EMAIL PROTECTED] was held as a post from a non-member.
