I have been rejecting messages from non-members but I am not sure that is the best practice. Is it better to "discard" rather than "reject" non-members messages?
It depends on the message ... if the message is topical, then I reject the message indicating that to post a person must be subscribed, and if they are subscribed, then they might be posting from a different email address.
If the message isn't topical, then I just discard it (for which the 'discard all messages marked as deferred' check box is a boon), as those are usually just spam.
