Note that this section +is not used to control whether your list's archives are public or +private; for that, use the <a href="#Archiving_options"><tex2html_cross_ref_visible_mark></a> category. + +<p> +There are four sub-categories: + +<ul> +<li>Subscription rules - i.e. the rules for joining and leaving + your mailing list + +<p> +</li> +<li>Sender filters - the rules for who may post messages to your + list + +<p> +</li> +<li>Recipient filters - moderation rules based on the recipient of + the message + +<p> +</li> +<li>Spam filters - some regular expression based rules for header + matching +</li> +</ul> + +<p> +The sender, recipient, and spam filtering rules are part of the +general list moderation features of Mailman. When a message is posted +to the list, it is matched against a number of criteria, the outcome +of which determines whether the message is reflected to the membership +or not. In general, the outcome is one of four states: + +<p> + +<ul> +<li>Approved or Accepted - the message may be sent on to the + members of the mailing list. + +<p> +</li> +<li>Hold - the message will be held for moderator approval. The + list owners and moderators will then have to explicitly approve + the message before the list members will see it. + +<p> +</li> +<li>Reject - the message is bounced back to the original sender, + often with a notice containing the reason the message was + rejected. The list members never see rejected messages. + +<p> +</li> +<li>Discard - the message is simply thrown away without further + processing. +</li> +</ul> + +<p> +Many of the fields in this section are text boxes accepting addresses, +one per line. Unless otherwise noted, these also accept regular +expressions which will be matched against an address, if the line +begins with a (caret) character. + +<p> + +<p><br /></p><hr class='online-navigation' /> +<div class='online-navigation'> +<!--Table of Child-Links--> +<a name="CHILD_LINKS"><strong>Subsections</strong></a> + +<ul class="ChildLinks"> +<li><a href="node21.html">2.7.1 Subscription rules</a> +<li><a href="node22.html">2.7.2 Sender filters</a> +<li><a href="node23.html">2.7.3 Recipient Filters</a> +<li><a href="node24.html">2.7.4 Spam Filters</a> +</ul> +<!--End of Table of Child-Links--> +</div> + +<div class="navigation"> +<div class='online-navigation'> +<p></p><hr /> +<table align="center" width="100%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="2"> +<tr> +<td class='online-navigation'><a rel="prev" title="2.6 the Digest Options" + href="node19.html"><img src='previous.png' + border='0' height='32' alt='Previous Page' width='32' /></a></td> +<td class='online-navigation'><a rel="parent" title="2 the List Configuration" + href="node8.html"><img src='up.png' + border='0' height='32' alt='Up one Level' width='32' /></a></td> +<td class='online-navigation'><a rel="next" title="2.7.1 subscription rules" + href="node21.html"><img src='next.png' + border='0' height='32' alt='Next Page' width='32' /></a></td> +<td align="center" width="100%">GNU Mailman - List Administration Manual</td> +<td class='online-navigation'><a rel="contents" title="Table of Contents" + href="contents.html"><img src='contents.png' + border='0' height='32' alt='Contents' width='32' /></a></td> +<td class='online-navigation'><img src='blank.png' + border='0' height='32' alt='' width='32' /></td> +<td class='online-navigation'><img src='blank.png' + border='0' height='32' alt='' width='32' /></td> +</tr></table> +<div class='online-navigation'> +<b class="navlabel">Previous:</b> +<a class="sectref" rel="prev" href="node19.html">2.6 The Digest Options</a> +<b class="navlabel">Up:</b> +<a class="sectref" rel="parent" href="node8.html">2 The List Configuration</a> +<b class="navlabel">Next:</b> +<a class="sectref" rel="next" href="node21.html">2.7.1 Subscription rules</a> +</div> +</div> +<hr /> +<span class="release-info">Release 2.1, documentation updated on December 5, 2007.</span> +</div> +<!--End of Navigation Panel--> + +</body> +</html> |
