I recommend "discard".  Spammers are known to use originating
addresses of regular people, so you can potentially be the cause of
receiving more spam due to mis-directed bounces.

But Mailman is generating a `your message is pending approval because
you're not subscribed' email at the moment, isn't it?  So changing
policy from `hold' to `bounce' won't be creating more emails back to the
OP, just altering what kind they get.

Mailman has a discard option so the list admin is not bothered with
any mail.  Of course, non-members do not get any notification that
there message was discarded.
