Hey, a question I can answer!  Here's how I handle this issue.

In the majordomo config file for the immediate list (testlist), the 
restrict_post line should read as follows:

restrict_post       =   testlist:testlist-digest

This then tells the immediate list to accept posts from either list
of subscribers.

Instruct the digest subscribers to send posts ONLY to the immediate 
list address.
