Slávek Banko via tde-users scripsit:
Is there an option to allow hyperkitty web interface only for "approved" users?
This way users can still subscribe
easily to ML but would not have automatic access to the web interface.
Other idea: is it possible to force emails sent from web interface to another server and
then back to mail server for
distribution to ML? this way spam msgs should get caught by spam filters. Like having an
intermediate email address.
From web interface go automatically to this intermediate address on different server ==
filter out spam. Then this
server forward to ML. Or maybe have hyperkitty GUI on a separate front end of hyperkitty
backend
Just thwroing around loose thoughts :-)

There is another possible level of defense: to set up newly subscribed
users not only to have to confirm their email address, but also to be
approved by a moderator. That could be an acceptable compromise.
What is your opinion?
Would be a start. But I think the spamers will just add another strategy to steal the
mods time and get past him.
