The noadvertise setting only means that list-name will not show up
when you send majordomo@your.mailhost a "lists" command.

The restrict_post setting does not stop others from writing to the
list-name address, but bounces their messages to the list-owner or 
list-approval address to be dealt with rather than being distributed
to the list-name directly.

I "assUme" (list 'a') was a typo for (file 'a') in the $listdir
directory.  I also "assUme" that you are using the resend alias
for list-name rather than pointing it directly to your :include: 
file.
