Hello!

I'm administering two mailing lists (mc@gnome.org and mc-devel@gnome.org) running Mailman 2.0.5. In order to stop spam, the messages from non-members are held for approval. Unfortunately, sometimes a message gets crossposted to a another list on a different site. Then we have a wave of posts from non-members.

I want to accept messages from certain domains without approval. While including the mailing list domain (gnome.org) would be risky (some spammers use the victim's address in From:), other domains should be safe.

I would like to be able to use regular expressions in the "poster" list, for example:

.*@suse.com .*@ximian.com .*@.*mit.edu

and so on. From what I see in the sources of Mailman 2.0.5, regular expressions are not used when the address is matched against the poster list. Would it be possible to use regular expressions in the future versions of Mailman?
