If there is a preceding message in the vette log saying this message was
held, it was rejected by moderator action. If not, there are only a
couple of possibilities.

The most likely is it is an HTML only post, the list's content filtering
doesn't accept HTML and filter_action is Reject. Note that
convert_html_to_plaintext = Yes doesn't happen unless you also accept
text/html in pass_mime_types.

Otherwise, the message may match a header_filter_rules rule with reject
action.

There are other possibilities, but they are unlikely in this case.

However, the log message you quote above is in the format written when a
moderator rejects the post and not in the format written when a post is
automatically rejected by a handler.

[Mailman-Users] members mail is getting marked rejected

The first guess is: A moderator rejected it, as the "Reason" says.
This can happen inadvertantly if there are a lot of spam messages.

Second guess: A moderator set the user to be rejected.  Check the
user's membership screen.  This can also happen inadvertantly to a
member, if a moderator accidentally ticks the wrong boxes on the
moderation screen.

Third guess: The message fell afoul of a different privacy filter.
Note that the privacy filter can be triggered on "hidden" content,
such as HTML tags and header fields that are not displayed by typical
user agents.

This kind of thing is reported occasionally, and it's always a matter
of local configuration or moderator action, at least for the last
decade that I can remember.  But maybe Mark has some additional
avenues you can explore.

[Mailman-Users] members mail is getting marked rejected

2016-09-19 Thread Andy Goldzweig
in the vette log I see:
LISTNAME: Refused posting:
From: MEMBER@MYDOMAIN
Subject: SUBJECT
Reason: Your message was deemed inappropriate by the moderator.
This person is a member of the list.
The sender filter for moderated members is hold
So why is the message getting rejected?
How else can I track down what is causing this so I can help the user to
send a 'good' message?

Andy
