I want to create a mailing list that is used for announcements only. I'd like attempts to post to be rejected with a notification.
I was able to set the list pw and verify it works with the Approved header using this reference:
https://docs.mailman3.org/projects/mailman/en/latest/src/mailman/rules/docs/...
I find that if both:
Default action to take when a member posts to the list
Default action to take when a non-member posts to the listare set to "reject (with notification)", the approved header is ignored and messages are always rejected (posted via "mailman inject")
Would it be bad to test the approved header before rejecting a message? Essentially always accept a message with a valid approved header? Is there another way for me to achieve this?
On another front, I'm unable to have messages posted via "mailman inject" use postorius created list templates. Would it be difficult to add this functionality?
