I run a bunch of my lists through an anti-spam procmail filter before I
hand them off to Mailman. It didn't require changing either procmail or
Mailman. What I did was I put my procmail filter in
/etc/procmailrcs/mailman and chowning it to the user and group that I
configured as the --with-mail-gid, then replacing the list alias with:
#lugor-announce: "|/usr/home/mailman/mail/wrapper post lugor-announce"
lugor-announce: "|/usr/bin/procmail -m MAILMAN=lugor-announce /etc/procmailrcs/mailman"
The last two lines of the procmail filter are:
:0
|/usr/home/mailman/mail/wrapper post ${MAILMAN}
I bet you could also do it by putting in a hidden alias for the list, and
having procmail use formail to send it to the hidden alias with whatever
changes (like the attachments stripped out).
