Use the restrict_post token in the list configuration file and, rather
than setting it to the listname, set it to something like "listname-post".
Now create a file called "listname-post" in your lists directory and enter
in all of the address of those that you'd like to be able to post to the
list; one per line just like any other Majordomo list file.
That should do it. The cool thing about doing it this way is that, since
there is no period in the name of the file, Majordomo will think it is
another list and generate a config file for it. Then you can configure it
and add people to the posters list via command to Majordomo rather than
through editing a text file.
We have most of our lists set up this way and works well. You can also
set multiple lists' restrict_post to the same -post file, should something
like that be necessary.
