Discard all mail with the subject "The resutls of your email commands"
Hello, I am using mailman 3.2.1 for several mailing lists. My colleagues want me to stop all mails with the subject "The results of your email commands". I found some contributions here, but nowhere a solution for this question. Does anybody has any suggestion? Maybe I could try to handle this outside of mailman, but then I would have to pass this task on to someone I dont know .... :-( Thanks for all hints. :-) Wolfgang

Doing it in the MTA, even though you don't want to, may be best as, with postfix for example, you can do it with header_checks.
To do it in Mailman 3, patch mailman/runners/command.py and comment out or remove the last line
reply.send(mlist)
Are you really sure you want to do this at all. It means for example
that one can't get a response to a help
or the new who
command among
others sent to the -request address.

Hello Mark, thank you for your hint. This is not my choice but is wanted by my collegues. I discussed it already...
I commented out the line in command.py and the "result of email commands" mail still was send. Exists there a kind of cache, or do I just have to wait some time, until this works? Thank you so much, Wolfgang

Did you restart Mailman core? You need to do that.
