Mailing LIst integration [message #26189]

I am running fudforum in conjunction with mailman. I have a small problem at this time. Fudforum sends mail to the list on behalf of the user who has made the post, and normally this user will not be a member of the mailing list, which would mean that i have to configure mailman to accept mails for non-subscribers, which in turn is a very dangerous thing.

Now i don't want to add the fudforum users directly to the mailing list since, these users will not want to be part of a list. The best way to proceed to configure the mailing list to accept non-subscribers only if the mail originates from 'localhost'.

That is: we need a 'host' based acl for Mailman. But i don't think mailman supports this. So has anyone come across this problem in the past, and knows how to configure mailman in this manner or does anyone have a better idea?

In general, what is a secure but effective way to combine mailing list and fudforum?

Thanks a lot in advance.
