Mailman has a feature for 'urgent' messages. If an incoming message has an
Urgent: xxx
header where xxx is one of the list admin, moderator or poster
passwords, the message is sent immediately to all list members
regardless of regular/digest or delivery enabled/disabled status
If the password doesn't match one of the three list passwords, the
message is rejected rather than accepted as a normal message so that the
sender knows it wasn't delivered as an urgent message.
If you can't prevent the message from being posted with an Urgent:
header, you can change Mailman's behavior from reject to accept as normal.
To do this, you need to patch Mailman/Handlers/CalcRecips.py. Around
line 58 there is a comment:

Remove that comment and the following 21 lines that end with:
> text = _("""\

I suspect the attachment of the original message is lost when the user
forwards the reject to you because it certainly should be attached to
the rejection notice.
