It's best if the actual list administrators decide how to handle postings
from non-members.

Hi,
Re: Banning a domain - I think that regex you are using needs to be
changed.
As far as I know, the examples given here are all well-formed:

(I added them there, after asking for help from others, so I hope so!)
Re: "non-members" - that's just an automated list of anyone who has ever
interacted with the list.[1] I believe we should leave the
spammer-addresses in there, but can change their moderation-settings to
"Discard".

https://docs.mailman3.org/projects/mailman/en/latest/src/mailman/model/docs…
- "Nonmembers are used to represent people who have posted to the mailing
list but are not subscribed to the mailing list. These may be legitimate
users who have found the mailing list and wish to interact without a direct
subscription, or they may be spammers who should never be allowed to
contact the mailing list."
Hope that helps!

Hi,
I have banned an email address domain (with *+(a)sorter.ch) but I am still
seeing emails from this sort of address getting through to moderation. What
else do I need to do? I see there are some emails from this domain listed
as non-members. Should I delete those?
Thanks!
