Hi, Is there a way to protect the list in a way that ONLY admin can send mails to the list. Maybe with password in Subject or in some other way.
Regards Alan

Hi, I want to add some non-members e-mails to accept non-members list so they can send mails to the list without being members. But, after I put the e-mail in the list, all mails being sent from that address are being held for approval. So, do I have to specify something else, or it is just the waz it should be?
Thanks Alan

There are at least two possibilities.
The messages are being held for some reason other than non-member post. What is the hold reason? If you don't still have a held message or notification, the reason is in Mailman's 'vette' log.
The address that is matched against accept_these_nonmembers may be either the address in From: or the address in Sender: depending on the setting of USE_ENVELOPE_SENDER in mm_cfg.py, and it has to be an exact match against the string or pattern in accept_these_nonmembers. I.e. if the address in accept_these_nonmembers is user@example.com and the sender as determined above is user@mail.example.com, it won't match. Note that in this example, if accept_these_nonmembers were ^user@.*example\.com either address would be matched by the reg exp.
