Subject: Re: Smartlist and Procmail List Spam

    I was wondering if it would be possible to make it so that the accept
list would be a superset of the dist list.  If a person can register under
their one account to actually get the list messages, and register their
other
accounts as "post only", they could register these accounts to post to the
Smartlist and Procmail lists, but a random spammer posting to the list would
not be able to.

This is what the file accept2 is for, just put the non-subscribed approved
addressses in there. If you're using accept2 for something else (maybe you
have it linked to listname-digest/accept) you can create an accept3 and
modify rc.submit to look in it as well.
Hi,
        If this is the case, why aren't the Procmail and the Smartlist mailing
lists set up that way?  It would certainly cut down on the spam.
