I am a new owner of a listserv and we are working with a particular vendor (MYVENDOR) that would like to have the ability for anyone with an email of "@
myvendor.com" to post to the listserv we just set up. This would allow someone from their company with that email address to post without having to maintain (add/remove) individual email addresses.
Setting
Send= *@myvendor.com
should accomplish that. You can combine this with other ’Send=‘ settings (except ’Send= Editor, which is its own whole special thing) — so for instance
Send= Private,*@myvendor.com
would allow messages from subscribers (regarless of whether or not they are @myvendor.com), plus messages from @myvendor.com addresses (regardless of whether they are subscribers).
Neither of the above setups is particularly secure — someone could easily forge a message to the mailing list from an @myvendor.com address — but that may not be a concern, depending on the situation. You could tighten up security with e.g.
Send= *@myvendor.com
Send= Confirm
With that setup, if LISTSERV received a message from an *@myvendor.com address, it would reply asking the sender to confirm that the message should go out, and would not distribute the message until that confirmation was received.
