We can do this effectively in Mailman 2.1 by adding the non-member to accept_these_nonmembers, and that's fairly easy to do from the admin page. Mailman 3 will make this more explicit by actually assigning a role of "nonmember" to the person, so as to be able to more granularly control their posting privileges. While we're starting to roll out some Mailman 3 lists, it will probably be a while before python-list is converted. Alternatively, individuals can subscribe to a mailing list and then disable delivery to their address. This essentially accomplishes the same thing, although for some lists, posts start out moderated until the person builds some positive reputation. Then the admin can turn off their moderation bit and their posts will go straight through. Cheers, -Barry -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
