The following (Chinese) domains are perennial offenders (and I do mean *years*): tom.com, 163.com, 126.com, and 263.com. Unfortunately, I have (or have had) subscribers apparently from all of them (maybe there's a lot of Chinese-origin spam "Created by XEmacs"? :-/), so I've needed to filter at the list-moderator level. > Also, only the message-id of discarded messages is logged by > Mailman, so figuring out if any particular discard_these_nonmembers > entry is still being hit is difficult. That's true. If your host is already running SpamAssassin, it might be possible to enable user filters, and then you could blacklist those on a per-list basis (I'm not sure how hard it is to associate a user- as-SpamAssassin-understands-it with a mailing list, though). ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://wiki.list.org/x/AgA3 Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://wiki.list.org/x/QIA9
