There is. I'm on several other (non-python, but still using mailman) mailing lists like that because they require you to be a subscriber to post via gmane. > On 2016-04-17 12:57, Tim Golden wrote: > > First, a quick summary of the current settings of the list: > > > > * Any post from someone who's not subscribed to the list is held for > > moderation As an alternative, when you send them through can you put a note on the bottom saying they're not subscribed, to remind people to CC them in responses? I think that's why we never get any followup on "newbie problem" questions (especially the crt dll thing and the modify remove repair thing). A couple other lists I'm on do this and it works well. I think most of the people who have objections to CC-ing are annoyed when they *receive* messages CC'd *to them*, rather than objecting on principle to doing it in reply to other people who aren't subscribed. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
