Re: [Mailman-Users] Can't close a list

2015-07-07 Thread Bernie Cosell
 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.

Ah, that solves the problem.   I don't think that was made clear.  So it 
probably was working, but I couldn't test it because although I was using 
other identities, the envelope still said it was from me.

thanks!  /b\

 to hold


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


 The membership list consists of a single address, and I sent a message to 
 the list from a different address and I was very surprised that it just 
 went through.  So I tried a more brute-force thing for my test: I changed
 
List of non-member addresses whose postings will be automatically 
 rejected.
 
 to ^.*


If you put

^.*

Or just

^.

in reject_these_nonmembers, all non member posts will be rejected.


 And it came right through:

 Is there something else I need to enable or set or something other than 
 the settings on the sender filters page to get outsiders blocked?
