I have the lists/members on 2.19 version of mailman imported nightly via automated command line text file import.
I get numerous spam posts that get sent to me from bogus addresses for approval daily. Can I set this to only allow members postings and just delete any others without me doing manually?
Took a couple years for it to become a headache, wanted to make sure I do properly since other than that is working great,
Thanks, Dan Young

In the list options, Privacy / Sender filters there is an option "Action to take for postings from non-members for which no explicit action is defined", set that to discard, and unless the post matches some other filter, it will be automatically discarded. If you have command line access (which it sounds like you do), I think you can change the order these are tested, letting this filter discard them before the spam filters, which might mark the message Hold.
