Set the generic non-member action to discard.  It's in privacy/sender 
filters.  All non-members who aren't in any of the other non-member lists 
on that page will have their posts discarded.

You can also set it to reject, but this will cause a rejection note to be 
sent, and if this mail is in fact spam it will probably cause backscatter, 
so use discard unless it's actual people doing the posting.
