This should work to hold all messages from non-members, but more below.

If you put

^.*

Or just

^.

in reject_these_nonmembers, all non member posts will be rejected.

Both the things you did apply to non-member posts. I suspect the issue
is that Mailman thinks your test posts are from a member because (by
default at least) if any of the smtp envelope sender or any From:,
Reply-To: or Sender: header contains a member address, Mailman considers
it a member post.
