My test list (call it 'listname') has the following line in the config file:

restrict_post     =listname

I just tried to post to it from a non-subscribed address, and received (in my 
list admin's email box) a message to the following effect

Subject: BOUNCE listname: Non-member submission from [unsubscribed address]

So long as your aliases use resend (which understands restrict_post) this config 
file setting should work.

Cheerio
