Hello,
Since a couple of hours I am receiving continuous subscription requests from addresses such as sqoon+random_characters@domain and sqoonart+random_characters@domain
I have added to the ban list the following regex to stop them from even subscribing: ^sqoon.*
But I continue to receive them.
Any idea on how to amend the regex or outright block them from even send subscription requests?
The list is metawiki-admins, a closed list.
Regards, M.
I've added another line to ban_list with ^sqoonart.* apparently the regexes in mailman ain't multiline?
In any case I doubt our list is the only one being affected so maybe we can block those addressed for all the lists?

We had the same thing in contact-nl (a closed mailing list too) a few years back. The only solution turned out to be a nasty one: adding ^.* to the blacklist.

Now they've started adding an "u" such as squoon instead of sqoon. Sigh, I'll create another regex rule but I don't discard doing as you said and block for a couple of days all subscription requests. Thank you.
