If the sender is a legit member on *all* the mailing lists how can you
stop him/her?

I searched for "mailman+crossposting" and found this to be somewhat
relevant - no solutions though:

Maybe possible if *all* ILUG mailing lists are hosted on the same
mailman installation and changes made to mailman source code.

I am on ILUG-Mumbai, Delhi, Chennai.  The x-posting issue on these
lists is not as bad as you say.  I don't know about the other ILUG
lists.    IMO, cross posting has it's place (see above).    Your OP is
a x-post also.
