Re: Question on restricting incoming mail from Mail Lists

2003-07-05 08:16:46
I have one inbox per email list right now.  Someone who gets the
subscription email address can then spam into my list inboxes.  I simply
want to block mail that doesn't come from the list.

Dana, what would happen when another list member tries to send you an off-list reply to one of your posts? Since it would have come to your address for that list subscription without going through the list, you'd block it.

You're back to checking for spammy content and suspicious routing in order to distinguish such honest, personal, legitimate mail sent by another list member from crap sent by a harvester.
