Hi Karl,

The way I implement -post is for taking advantage of the config file's
restrict_post setting.  If you run a moderated list, and restrict the
ability to post to your list only by the moderator, the setting would
look like this;

restrict_post = yourlist-post

The moderator's email address would be in the file named "yourlist-post"
in the majordomo/lists directory.  Since this is now a list, even though
it has no alias in the aliases file, you can send majordomo commands to
add/remove addresses from the list of moderators without having to give
anyone file level access to edit the file.
