I use this script to do just that. copy and paste into a file (name it clear_request) and put it in your mailman cronjob. Your default cron job for mailman most likely mails admins at 5pm about pending requests so you should run this script at 4:50pm or something. HTH #! /usr/bin/python # # Writt

you could make the list accessible to members only. if a member spams then you unsubscribe/disable them. or if you have plenty of time on your hands, you could make it so that it requires administrator approval for posts to go through. HTH - Original Message - From: "FREDERIC DESJARDINS"
