Our primary mailserver is outside the firewall, so if I block all inbound port 25, then my own users can't email the list. Otherwise the firewall would be a good solution. Now that you mention it, I think there will be some good along these lines. I can configure our firewall to only allow port 25 from a specific IP. And I think I can configure exim to only allow email "From: " a specific domain. It doesn't have to be inside of Mailman, as I was previously thinking. Then I can configure Mailman as loosey-goosey as possible, and rely on the underlying stuff instead.
