Re: [Mailman-Users] Suppress moderation message in mailman 2.1 ?
Why not, when sending usenet posts to the list, merely change the 'from' address to yourself (or a special-purpose mailbox, or something)? This would require only changes to stuff you made yourself (the usenet -> list processing).
I'd think the answer was obvious: Because I didn't write the messages, and I don't want the responses from people who read them.

IIRC we also check Sender and the envelope sender for membership by default, and if any of them is a member we let it through. Maybe there's a dodge in there you can use?

I could add an approved header, but then I'd be passing spam in the usenet group onto the list. I can catch the most obvious stuff, but some would leak.
