[Zope] Restricting Posts to Subscribers

[Andrew Sawyers]

A similar discussion is taking place on zope-dev and I'd like to bring 
that here as well.  I'd like to propose that we change the Mailman 
policy for this list to restrict posting to subscribers only.  I'm sure 
others will agree and others will not.   Some of the recent issues I've 
seen are:
A) I can't stop some logical extensions (.zip) which are now containing 
virus' from getting to the list without causing problems for those who 
are possibly attaching valid attachments
B) We can't stop all spam - we're using 3 rbl lists to stop as much as 
we can; that is not good enough IMNSHO
C) We can stop outside mailers from replying to the list illogically
My vote is for refusing posts from non-subscriber emails.

Let the beatings begin.
