However, there is no corresponding way to create a nice notice for people who are trying to post to the list but are not members. It is not uncommon to want to set the list so that no members are moderated by default (so that the member_moderation_notice does not apply), but to set the generic_nonmember_action to be Reject or Hold. Unfortunately, default standard text is hard-coded into Mailman/Handlers/Moderate.py for these instances. I'd be fine with a template file that I could modify, along the lines of postheld.txt -- at least that would allow me to put in URLs properly formatted with less-than and greater-than signs which don't get HTML-escaped when the text is saved. ;( Alternatively, a separate field should probably be created, probably something like generic_nonmember_notice, or somesuch. That way you could have two different notices for the two different cases, as appropriate. However, I don't grok Python, and I'm not a real programmer. So, I have hacked together a little patch that allows me to re-use the member_moderation_notice as a result of the setting of generic_nonmember_action. I hope you find this useful. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=300103&aid=1107169&group_id=103
