My ISP is using Mailman 2.1.11. Is that the latest? I'm guessing no, since it is currently NOT recognizing the envelope sender. This sounds like one that I'll need to contact my ISP for.
Unfortunately, it looks like things don't work as you need them to,
NB. "As he needs them to" means that the *list moderator* be recognized as the *envelope sender*, and the message be approved in that case.
It's somewhat confusing and complicated, but it hasn't changed in a long time.
And won't work for the OP, since envelope sender is always lowest priority in the checks.
Just to summarize, since the OP characterizes himself as a "newbie". Bottom line, a new feature is needed for his use case.
I don't think so. Moderate.py calls the Message.get_senders() method to get *all* the addresses from the From: header, envelope sender, Reply-To: header and Sender: header. If any of those addresses is a member, the post is from a member.
It is only later, after we decide it's a non-member post that Moderate calls Message.get_sender() to get the single, first address in From: and Sender: headers and the envelope sender to match against *_these_nonmembers.
Thus, if the list moderator's address is the envelope sender and is a list member, the post is a member post.
