Override recipient filters for specific sender
One of our list members sends announcements from their organization to the list on a regular basis. This is not a problem for us. However, because of the way they are structured, they get held for approval with either the "Message has implicit destination" or "Too many recipients to the message" errors. I then have to go in and accept them.
I would like to save time by allowing this specific member to bypass the recipient filters. Is there a way to do this?

In Mailman 3 you could do this by setting that member's moderation
action to accept immediately
, but in Mailman 2.1 I don't see a way to
do this other than by modifying Mailman/Handlers/Hold.py to not apply
those tests to that specific sender.

I have managed to train the people who do this in my organization to put all non-list addresses on the BCC line instead of To or CC, and list adddresses on the To line.
Reduces the need to go in and accept them by about 50%, which is better than nothing.
